The Harbor Center is more than a building —
it’s a place where people of all ages can connect, learn, and celebrate.
Born out of the community’s long-standing need for a dedicated senior center, the Harbor Campus has evolved into a shared vision:
A place that serves our seniors, strengthens our families, celebrates our culture, provides opportunities for community connection, and protects our environment.
NOTE: Harbor Center is present working project name. The official names for the Center and individual buildings will be selected through a community naming initiative and donor recognition process.
For Families & Community
An inclusive, accessible hub that unites people through community events, shared learning, and celebrations of every kind.
FOR LEARNING & THE ENVIRONMENT
Classrooms, trails and an outdoor campus for education, conservation, and hands-on environmental programs.

Community Stories
“For years, our senior community has gathered in wonderful spaces, but none that were our own. The Harbor Center means finally having a place designed for us, where we can connect, learn, and belong.”
Gig Harbor Senior Center Member
“Gig Harbor has long needed a place that brings people of all ages together. The Harbor Center will be the heart of our community — where we celebrate, collaborate, and strengthen the connections that make this such a special place to live.”
Gig Harbor Resident and Business Owner
“The Harbor Center will open new doors for students and the community to explore and learn from the natural world right in their backyard. It’s an incredible opportunity to inspire future generations to care for our environment.”

Help Shape the Future
The Harbor Center is a once-in-a-generation community project — built by and for the people of our community. Led by the Greater Gig Harbor Foundation, this transformative campus will finally provide a dedicated home for our growing senior community and create new and much needed community spaces for learning, connection, and celebration. We’re seeking committed community members, philanthropists, and leaders to join the Harbor Center Capital Campaign Committee and help lead the charge to bring this vision to life.
If you’re inspired to make a lasting impact and help shape the future of our community, we invite you to get involved.
