It’s that time again. The 2026 IES Seattle Annual Sponsorships are open! We thank you for your continued participation and support for all things IES Seattle Section. We are excited to organize and plan our 2026 year of events. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, IES events have always been funded by donations, and we would not be able to do it without financial support from our local community.   Last year we raised $55,500 and awarded $10,000 in scholarships for students and emerging professionals in the lighting industry. We have also used funds to improve communication, marketing and engagement opportunities as seen through our re-vamped social media presence, professional photography at events, updated website with calendar of programs, sponsor and community recognition at events and online, and updated purchasing system for easier tax-deductible donation documents.  This year our goal is to raise $65,000 to cover the costs of our events as well as raise funds for the scholarship fund. We are looking for a one-time yearly donation to support our program year.  <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/hxn9dbuhd/image/upload/v1761351026/wysiwyg/ikzexqhahakq2bjgjsjx.jpg" style="width:711px;display:block;vertical-align:top;margin:5px auto 5px 0px;text-align:left;padding:0px 1px;max-width:100%" /> Looking for an alternative to annual sponsorship? There are sponsorships specifically available for our biggest events. These will become available when tickets become available for the event and cannot be purchased ahead of time.:<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/hxn9dbuhd/image/upload/v1761351040/wysiwyg/syn24vryig9ig1ticuee.jpg" style="width:723px;display:block;vertical-align:top;margin:5px auto 5px 0px;text-align:left;padding:0px 1px;max-width:100%" />To ensure that all print advertising, events, socials, website, and scholarship communications reflect the correct information and allow us time to plan events, we request that all payments be made by end of January. Any payments made after that date cannot be guaranteed to get the full sponsorship benefits listed above. The 2026 programming schedule is tentatively stated below.  2026 Program Calendar*dates subject to changeJanuary -  District 6 Fundamentals of Lighting – Virtual SeriesJanuary 22nd  -  Program EventFebruary 19th -  Program EventMarch 26th  -  Program EventApril 23rd  – WILD/IALD/IES Lighting SlamMay 14th  – IES Seattle Gloria Koch Leonidas Illumination AwardsJune 5th  -  Board RetreatSeptember 16th – Susan Rhodes IES Scavenger HuntOctober 15th  -  Program EventNovember 12th  – Lighten Up!
