SpArc Tank Ig-Nite

Step into a world where brilliance ignites and possibilities “SpArc” at SpArc Tank Ig-Nite! Last year’s event was an extraordinary evening dedicated to showcasing the latest in innovation and creativity – in technology, equipment, programs to build skills, trainings, and more. This dynamic event gathered trailblazers, thinkers, visionaries, and funders from diverse fields to dream together and collaborate on solutions to improve access to independent living, inclusion, and equity for people with disabilities.

On November 20, 2025, we had another memorable SpArc Tank Ig-Nite at Ten Oaks Ballroom in Clarksville, MD. Tickets for our next event will go on sale in the fall of ’26!
