Evergreen Hamilton Community Storefront

A dynamic community hub that responds to local needs by providing opportunities for civic engagement and action.

In August 2015, Evergreen launched the Hamilton Community Storefront Hub at 294 James St North. The idea for the hub was identified during the development of the West Harbour Community Engagement Strategy led by Evergreen in partnership with the City of Hamilton and the Hamilton Community Foundation.

Together with hundreds of community groups and associations, local artists and change agents, we have collectively transformed a vacant storefront on James Street North into a dynamic community hub that responds to local needs by providing opportunities for civic engagement and action.

Over time, the purpose of the storefront has evolved to connect, enhance and support sustainable and inclusive city-building in and around the City of Hamilton.
