1. Performance art in the Tacoma bar scene has typically been one of two things: goldfish races or the awkward courting rituals at the end of a Kry show. Jazzbones will add a third category when it hosts Ten Tiny Dances at 6 p.m. For those who haven't caught the buzz, Ten Tiny Dances is a stripped down format where 10 dance artists demonstrate astonishing inventiveness and variety on a 4-foot-by-4-foot stage - or about the size of a coffee table. Dinner and drinks will be served, but heckling and betting will not be allowed. All proceeds benefit MLK Ballet's tuition-free dance training.
2. The South Tacoma Farmers Market opens today at the corner of 56th and Washington streets in historic South Tacoma. Expect an array of locally produced and grown delicacies such as: Lamb, beef, pork, poultry, eggs, rabbit, seafood, flowers, vegetables, herbs, strawberries, cherries, baked goods, hot foods, natural skin care products and more from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. every Sunday. Gateway to India will be on site. Plus, the Lakewood Community Jazz Band and the Whateverly Brothers provide the soundtrack.
3. Pierce College Fort Steilacoom's music program presents 250 singers for a choral celebration of traditional church hymns at 7 p.m. at Pacific Lutheran University's Lagerquist Hall. The collaboration will feature the Pierce College Concert Choir and Chamber Singers, Tacoma Symphony Chorus, Lakes High School Concert Choir, McChord Field Chancel Choir, and Little Church on the Prairie Chancel Choir. In addition, guest singers will be included from Mount Cross Lutheran, Central Lutheran, First Lutheran, and other churches.
4. Northwest Repertory Singers ends its 10th choral season with an afternoon concert featuring newly commissioned work by Donna Gartman Schultz, along with works by Samuel Barber, Leonard Bernstein and John Corigliano. Expect special guest artists, NWRS alumni and several dignitaries for the 3 p.m. concert at Mason United Methodist Church.
5. Tacoma sludge-metal stalwarts Argonaut will help anchor the musical portion of a day-long no-limit poker tournament at Hell's Kitchen. Losing money has never been more rockin'. Hands of Toil, Lozen, Pioneers West and Thieves Hours join Argonaut at 7 p.m.
