Enhancing the quality of life in the Palouse since 1983.
We are working to build a better community through civic and environmental projects in the Palouse region.
Our projects celebrate our rivers, create trail networks, beautify downtown, and develop a deeper sense of community.
Creating Community By Connecting to Our Rivers and Trails
Pullman Civic Trust is a non-profit volunteer organization of more than 300 community-minded citizens of the Palouse. Since our inception in 1983, the Trust has completed many projects that now benefit Pullman and the Palouse region.
Upcoming Events
Construction Kickoff Celebration
3Forks River and Arts Festival
Saturday May 18th 10-5 along the Downtown Riverwalk
Saturday April 27th @ 11 am in Pine Street Plaza
Join us for fun activities as we kick-off a “passport to downtown businesses” project that incentivizes visits to downtown merchants throughout the construction season. At the event, you can learn about the construction timeline and how to navigate through downtown and where parking is available. Come see with your own eyes the demolition of Main Street and then watch the new downtown rise from the ashes as things get put back together as you visit businesses and collect passport stamps throughout the construction project.
Pedal Pullman
Thursday, June 27th 9:30-6. Sign in at Pine Street Plaza.
Changes coming to Downtown Pullman
Downtown Pullman is heading for an update with construction to begin May of 2024. Part of the plan includes updating Pine Street Plaza and adding a bike lane to Main Street. Pullman Civic Trust has been very engaged in offering comments on the plans and advocating for preservation of what is beautiful and questioning additions that we believe will detract from Pine Street Plaza. We anticipate the planned updates will go a long way toward creating a refreshed and lively downtown.
