Our History
B.O.O.M. powered by RISE Chattanooga is a vibrant community hub that celebrates creativity, inclusiveness, and resilience.
Our online store offers a diverse range of unique items while also featuring a comprehensive black business directory. As part of R.I.S.E. (Responsive Initiatives for Social Empowerment), a 501c3 non-profit community arts & culture organization, we are dedicated to developing innovative programming and events that break cultural barriers and foster awareness.
Our shared brick and mortar retail space in the historic MLK Blvd neighborhood, also known as the Big Nine, is exclusively designed to support creative entrepreneurs. We provide a platform for them to expand their community network, enhance their marketing strategies, and achieve sales growth.
This initiative sets us apart, offering a unique selling point that actively promotes and supports the creative entrepreneurs within our community.
