Friday night I went to The Tripod Show at the Madera Fine Decorative Furnishings Facility at 2210 Court A, Tacoma. The Tripod Show consists of three local artists each presenting a slideshow around a theme. Each of the presentations was great! They ask for a $5 donation at the door.
More information about the Tripod Shows can be found here http://www.weeklyvolcano.com/entertainment/spew-blog/2011/09/Behind-the-TRIPOD-Slide-Show-in-Tacoma/
And info on Madera Woodworking (what terrific pieces they have!) can be found here http://www.maderawoodworking.com/
The space is in the Hunt & Petrich Building, which has over the years been a gas station, auto repair and a hardware store.
