It's that time again. Time to celebrate all the beauty and creativity and funk and goodness that exists between the cracks of urbanity. There are a whole lot of festivals in Tacoma. But only one Urban Art Festival.
On deck are live art demonstrations from painter and screen-printing wiz Kenji Fulmer, who has been seen recently teaching screen-printing classes at Tacoma Art Place. Also, expect appearances from local favorites Mike Capp, Dustin Hillgrove, Jada-Moon on the henna, Ryan Loiselle, Jodi Barstad, Lithium Love, and photographer Tanya DeMots.
And then there's the music. Hell of a line up this year, including main stage performers Voxxy Vallejo, Basemint, Blame it on the Girl, New Law, Hotels, Pioneers West and The Fucking Eagles.
Rounding out main-stage offerings is a rare treat for Tacoma - reggae legend Clinton Fearon.
Urban Art Festival
Sunday, June 27, noon to 9 p.m., free,
People's Park, Ninth Avenue and MLK Way, Hilltop Tacoma
