ART
An Evening with Steven
Steven Naccarato has been developing his skills in digital photography for the past eight years, he explains. More recently, his life has been increasingly “focused” on his art.

“I like simple, but dramatic images,” explains Naccarato, whose photographs include high contrast compositions featuring local buildings and bridges. “There are things all around us that we walk by every day and don’t notice. We don’t really look any deeper.”

But Naccarato has been learning to look deeper as he travels around Tacoma with his camera. “I try to keep my camera with me because those images can appear anywhere.”

Discover Naccarato’s secret tonight when he discusses his work on the final night of his show First Glimpse. â€" Bill Timnick

ROCK
Vicci Martinez
Vicci Martinez is a delight to behold. Her songs are inspired works by a girl who is wise beyond her years. She’s adorable; she’s a badass, and she’s a serious contender for national adoration. Why she isn’t touring the world under the umbrella of a major label is a mystery to me. Her voice goes from gentle to gritty to gutsy without sounding pushed or pitchy. She’s appeared on national television twice on Star Search. In concert, she has shared the stage with Sting, Annie Lennox, Bill Frisell, Christopher Cross, Supersuckers, Jonny Lang, The Presidents Of The United States Of America, Cherry Poppin’ Daddies, Avril Lavigne, The Paperboys, Roomful Of Blues, Walter Trout, Tab Benoit, Carrie Akre, Alvin Youngblood Hart, Caroline Aiken, The Radiators, Jerry Cantrell, Billy Duffy, Eddie Spaghetti, Kristin Hoffman, John Corabi, Laura Love, Brandi Carlisle, and many more. And she has a bunch of new songs to unleash on you. â€" Angela Jossy

FILM
Cult Movie Night
They walk among us. They resemble people, approximate our words and actions, present themselves more or less as human. And yet they are more â€" a different species with its own dark legends, its own clandestine meeting places. They love Rocket ships as phallic symbols, chisel-jawed misogynists leering at mini-skirted astro-vamps, Zsa Zsa Gabor trading in her Hungarian accent for Venusian vernacular, and other bad-in-a-good-way and good-in-a-bad-way cinema. They are dorks, and they salivate over Cult Movie Night at the Tempest Lounge every Sunday. â€" Suzy Stump
