The Hillman City Collaboratory is a social change incubator.
Our mission is to create an instrument of transformation that provides space and programs specifically designed to create community and equip change-makers. The Collaboratory is housed in a multi-use complex that incorporates four unique spaces: the mixing chamber, the coworking office, the learning kitchen, and the community park & garden.
Hillman City is a diverse and historic neighborhood in south Seattle supported by the Collaboratory:
a neighborhood hub where community thrives,
a breeding ground where collaborations are born and relationships form,
a compost bucket where positive social movements blossom.
The Collaboratory was originally created by the joint efforts of Valley & Mountain Fellowship and Community Arts Create, along with an outpouring of community support.
