We’re writing the next chapter of Downtown’s Love Story.
Join us for the Downtown Spokane Partnership’s annual State of Downtown & Awards on Friday, May 30, 2025, at the Spokane Convention Center.
This year, we are thrilled to feature Peter Kageyama, author of For the Love of Cities, as our keynote speaker. His insights on community passion and urban development will inspire us as we celebrate Spokane’s continued growth and vibrancy.
The morning will also honor outstanding contributions to downtown with the presentation of the annual Legacy and Impact Awards.
