Spark Salon 2026:

An immersive evening of storytelling, art and igniting the spark within us all

Donate at various art activations, masks, poetry, portraits — experience just some of what Spark has to offer with all our guests!

Spark Salon 2026 is more than a fundraiser—this is a joyful celebration of Spokane's creativity and the young people who shape our community's future.

The Salon joins artists, storytellers, performers, and civic leaders for an immersive evening of interactive rooms, live performances, and creative surprises that spark wonder and conversation.

But the magic of Spark Salon extends far beyond one night.

Every ticket purchased, every donation made, and every sponsorship pledged helps Spark provide

🎒Free after-school arts programs

🤖 Robotics labs and hands-on STEAM learning

🖋Creative writing workshops; Teen Write

🎨 Art supplies, books, and technology access

🎤 Summer programs like Girls Rock Lab

At Spark Central, we believe every person—no matter their household income—deserves a place to imagine, create, and innovate.

Thanks to donors like you, that belief becomes reality in all the ways you support. When you support Spark Salon, you're not just backing an event. You're investing in young creators who gain confidence, connection, and creative spark that can last a lifetime.
