The Latest News from our 2025 Community Town Hall

In case you missed it, we hosted our annual Community Town Hall on Monday, May 12 at Three Stories and online. For those of you who were unable to join us live, you can click here to view the recording or click here to view the presentation slides.

We had some technical difficulties during the recording process due to Zoom freezing, but we have edited the recording as much as possible to remove the long pauses caused by technical interruptions during the live conversation. Some of the team introductions at the beginning of the presentation are cut-off, but you can meet click here to meet the Handmade Arcade Team.

We covered a lot in the presentation, including:

• Welcoming new board members  

• Sharing the process made on our strategic plan

• Committing to action items to address sales disparities between Black and non-Black makers

• Introduced new Monthly Membership & Small Business Sponsorship programs

• Announced new maker programs and services to come - including a new market in 2026

• And much more!

We invite you to reach out to us with any questions, feedback, ideas, or opportunities that come to mind following the presentation. 

Thank you for being part of the Handmade Arcade community!
