The Tacoma Arts Commission invites artists working in a broad spectrum of media, including visual art, music, dance, performance, and film to submit entries to the Art at Work month Art Slam taking place Friday November 21, from 7 to 9 pm at the Rialto Theater in downtown Tacoma. This event was developed to provide an opportunity for local artists to view a sampling of their work alongside the work of their peers. It will also provide an opportunity for local collectors and art enthusiasts to see the art being produced in the South Sound region. What is an Art Slam? In a fast-paced format, a selection of work by local artists will be projected on the big screen. Spoken word artists will also perform. An accompanying description of artists’ work and contact information will be included in a program. Artists of all mediums and genres will show their work, ranging from the very accomplished to the up and coming. Everyone presents their work in the same format. The Art Slam is a place for artists and art enthusiasts to gather and share their work in a non-competitive atmosphere. The event is meant to be a fun, relaxed and inspiring evening, reminding us why we create art in the first place. Join us for a reception in the Rialto lobby following the event. The Art Slam is open to current residents of the South Puget Sound region. You are encouraged to submit work created since 2005. Submissions must be received by October 27, 2008. We reserve the right to edit submissions. There is no fee to enter work into the Art Slam.
