EXPERIENCE
For fifteen years, Babette's Events has lived at the intersection of community building, performance arts, and events that don’t just entertain—they ignite. Taking blank canvases—a street corner, a lobby, a stage, a warehouse—and turning them into experiences people feel in their bones. One thing is clear: power lies in creating moments that activate an entire community.
Since 2011, Babette's Events has produced events from Seattle through Northern California to Las Vegas, and now Wenatchee—bringing humor, connection, and raw authenticity into spaces, flipping energy, sparking conversation, and making people feel alive. The demand is always the same: real, vibrant experiences that remind people they’re part of something bigger.
Now, Babette's Events brings that momentum to Wenatchee.
Babette's Events is here to create bold community events, immersive arts experiences, and creative spaces with pulse—places that pull people in, spark collaboration, and awaken the city. This is about amplifying culture, igniting connection, and giving the community something to rally around.

ABOUT
Tara "Babette"Shuttleworth
Tara “Babette” Shuttleworth named her event coordinating company after her grandmother, Babette Shuttleworth—whose wisdom lives on in sayings such as, “Only pay attention to the rules that make sense… and most of them don’t make sense” and “If you can’t be good, be great.”
Tara spent her childhood winters in Fairbanks, Alaska and her summers in Las Vegas, Nevada. Cold months were dedicated to mastering the art of Flashlight Tag, while hot desert evenings were filled with choreographing dance performances for her neighborhood cul-de-sac to songs like Debbie Gibson’s “Electric Youth.”
Not much has changed.
Today, Tara creates performance pieces for Wenatchee’s First Friday Art Walk under her stage name “Skylar Skye Evans” and hosts monthly movement events at Studio 509 DANCE. While she has expanded her focus to include teen-centered events across North Central Washington, she continues to bring an edgy, engaging energy to community and adult-focused experiences. Tara thrives on crafting events that connect people, spark creativity, and energize the city. She looks forward to planting roots in Wenatchee and building a vibrant network of heart-centered friends who love this city as much as she does.
