Imagine Jacob Lawrence hanging out at the half-moon bar inside the Tempest Lounge, talking about the state of African-American arts with Langston Hughes. The two trace the evolution of art and poetry with awe in their voices as they kickback inside the Hilltop Tacoma lounge. Sound impossible? Well, the players might be different, and the location is a block away, but the concept is happening.
Fab-5 artists Chris Jordan, Kenji Stoll along with Christie Tirado have hung their multidisciplinary exhibit COLORED at the Tacoma Art Place. Accompany each piece are the poetic works of Darryl Crews, Danielle Jordan and Dwayne Cawthon. Tonight, the three artists and three poets examine race, ethnicity and heritage as it pertains to written, visual and performing arts during the artist reception for the show.
