If you survive this weekend's festivals â€" Hotrod-A-Rama, Woofstock, Proctor and University Place festivals â€" pound the Rock Star all week because more is on its way, including this one. â€" Suzy Stump
- Forward Tacoma reports: Embellish Salon is turning their move from 545 St. Helens to 1121 Court D into more than a grand opening function. They’ve partnered with Tacoma Arts Community to create a community festival on Aug. 19 from noon to 6 p.m. on Court D, featuring salon tours, a VIP tent for Embellish clients, various artists and artisan booths, food vendors, and live music. Embellish will also be recording a 12-track CD of the musicians playing that day, with proceeds going to Tacoma Arts Community and a Jazzbones philanthropic group that gives music instruments to children. Visual artists are being invited to submit art for the cover of the CD. For more information call Embellish at (253) 752-8144.
