OUR PARTNERS
OUR PARTNERS
No man is an island.
Arcata is more than a collection of gatherings, classes, and professional engagements. It is an ecosystem of people and institutions whose time, talent, and treasure make those things possible.
Our partnerships take many forms: Contributors who share their expertise, ambassadors who bring Arcata to life locally, parlors that open their doors, vendors and sponsors who strengthen our offerings.
We are selective about the company we keep. Arcata seeks partners who care about excellent work, trustworthy relationships, and the wellbeing of the places they call home. In return, we endeavor to create partnerships that are genuinely worthwhile—for Arcata, for our patrons, and for the partners themselves.
