Ordinary Art Groupie




Saturday morning.
Not just ANY Saturday morning.
The first day of ART AT WORK,
A 2-day studio event showcasing artists of Tacoma.
It’s sponsored by the city’s Arts Commission.
I’m grabbing my camera and venturing out soon.
I’ll also swing by the museum to photograph the altars

Dia de los Muertos community festival.
So with any luck, I’ll have pictures tomorrow.


"Art Groupies at the Opening" created by MeriMagic on Polyvore




Today, I’m just an ordinary art groupie.
