Any errors in organizing this show and competition will be corrected as soon as possible and noted on our website. Please be patient as we learn from our first show. Entry fee money will be used to pay for prizes, tent, and gratuities; any remaining money will go to a fund to "up-the-ante" for the next year's competition, start a non-profit art show organization, and hopefully to expand into the new Tollefson Plaza and make Tacoma the center of the art universe. Any money not used for next year's competition will go to a local worthy art related non-profit organization to be decided by a panel of previous jurors. For more questions contact:
