Urban Arts Festival A Success

Weather could not have been any better for this years Urban Arts Festival. Located at Firemans Park in downtown Tacoma hippies, goths, rockers, drunks, kids, grandmas, and even stilt walkers converged. It was an event that truly brought together people who care and love Tacoma. The stages this year looked amazing, I thought the greenery worked really well. Next year I would like to see more local food establishments taking part though. Sure the taste of Tacoma was the same weekend but the quality of the carnival food that is offered at the Taste is terrible. Great job everyone who helped make this festival a success.
