Amplifying Cultural Communities

EchoX is dedicated to advocating for digital equity, using technology and storytelling to uplift and amplify the voices of the Northwest’s diverse cultural communities.

EchoX believes every cultural community should be seen, heard, and valued

Amplifying Cultural Communities means making these voices stronger, increasing their visibility, and ensuring their stories are shared and celebrated. By using digital tools and the power of storytelling, we help diverse communities connect with a broader audience and make a lasting impact. Our online cultural resource center does this through these key initiatives:

Voices

A curated digital newsfeed featuring stories and articles that amplify diverse community voices, sharing thoughtful narratives about culture, heritage, and identity.

Directory

A centralized listing of cultural community resources, including organizations, groups, and artists. Connect with local resources and artists in your community!

Digitize

A youth-driven program providing a supportive environment for teens and young adults to collaborate on multimedia storytelling, build digital literacy, and amplify their voices.

Calendar

A community-powered calendar featuring local public event listings and cultural activities. Curious about what to do this weekend? Explore the events in your area!

2024 “How to Look Cool Online” Websites

This summer’s 4th Annual Web Development Workshop “How to Look Cool Online” (HTLCO) generated an array of website’s reflecting our participants’ ethnic cultural backgrounds. Every year’s websites are reviewed by a panel of experts and this year’s HTLCO cohort really impressed the team.

2024 “How to Look Cool Online” Web Development Workshop Recap 

HTLCO is a paid opportunity that introduces simple coding to students with little to no coding background. Prior to the workshop, many incoming students had negative experiences with coding in the past, or fears about diving in. By the time they left the workshop, all expressed a significant increase in confidence towards coding.
