BKIND

Our campaign is all about kindness.

We love our downtown community of long-time residents, newcomers, staple businesses, up-and-coming entrepreneurs, nonprofits, a service providers. BKIND is the shared spirit that all are welcome in Downtown Bellingham – and discrimination, violence, and vandalism are not. That's the passion behind the BKIND campaign; it's our way of helping us all stand together in times of celebration and support each other through struggle.

Join us in representing the values our downtown believes in; vitality, celebration, and safety. Show your support for a stronger downtown by displaying the BKIND poster and buttons included in our free BKIND kit. 

Posters and buttons are available at our office at 114 West Magnolia Street, Suite 504.

Introducing BKIND Brews

A Collaborative Beer Project Beautifying Downtown Bellingham Pint By Pint

Did you know Bellingham has the most breweries per capita of any city in Washington? In Downtown alone, we are able to grab a pint of craft brew from Aslan, Boundary Bay, Darach, Gruff, Structures, Wander, and Kulshan’s Trackside location pops-up at the Waterfront each summer.

All these lagers and ales are good to cap off a long day at the office, hiking or biking the trails, on the water, or just because. The tons of suds Bellingham knocks back each year do a lot of good, too.

In 2023, the Downtown Bellingham Partnership is collaborating with Aslan, Structures, and others (TBA) to release BKIND Brews to the community! A portion of proceeds directly benefit the Downtown Bellingham Partnership’s work to beautify, program, and activate public spaces* AND you’ll get to see the results of your sipping support!

Where & When To Enjoy BKIND Brews

Each participating brewery has their own recipe, so expect to taste something new at release parties conveniently planned during First Friday festivities! Mark your calendars for this summer’s planned BKIND Brew release parties and stay in touch to be the first to know more.
