For the first time in 12 years Fab-5 has found a home. Our Creativity Center FABITAT located at 1316 MLK Way, enables us to serve Pierce County youth year round, but in order to make this happen we need the community’s support with all hands on deck. Help us secure our permanent fixture for young people to gather and grow together by joining our team and becoming a supporter of Fab-5.

Since we are in the process of our first individual donor campaign, to celebrate the occasion, our good friends @ JAB-LAB have created an amazing mini-documentary that captures the essence of what we do.

Afterwords, please consider a monthly (or one time) gift to our program. All details can be found @ fab-5.org/give – where you can view a photo gallery of our current Fab-5 supporters, as well as get a detailed breakdown of how your resources benefit our students, and the greater Pierce County community.

Also, please feel free to share this video campaign to others who have a passion for supporting youth, community arts, and an organization dedicated to positive community change. Without you, none of our work could happen.

Thank you for all of your continued support.

Warmly,

The Fab-5

We @ Fab-5/FABITAT are honored to host this project launch.

This past Saturday, Fab-5  students, instructors and local community members gathered to celebrate the New Year with a jam held at the Graffiti Garages in Downtown Tacoma. Needless to say, we had a lot of fun and want to give a big thanks to everyone who came out to celebrate with us!
