Tacoma Film Festival
No longer content to play second fiddle to Seattle and its film festival (and in so many other ways as well), Tacoma started its own.
Now in its second year, the Tacoma Film Festival was founded on the principle of giving new and emerging filmmakers an opportunity to have their work screen before an audience. Ranging in length from two minutes to two hours, the wide range of movies is sure to provide something for every movie-going taste and preference. There is also a heavy emphasis on movies made here in Washington.
Location: Various Tacoma locations, including the non-profit Grand Cinema (606 S. Fawcett Avenue), Tacoma Art Museum (1701 S. Pacific Avenue), and Tacoma School of the Arts (1118 S. Commerce). Consult the schedule for details.
