The spoken word performance, New Faces, New Voices: The Role of Youth in Educational Justice, will take place at 7 p.m. in Schneebeck Concert Hall. Entrance is free and everyone is welcome.

Brazill St. - a Tacoma building scheduled to be listed on the real estate market for sale.

"Artists are gentrifiers in Tacoma along with innumerable harbingers in a city poised for cultural tourism to booster private commerce," states Johnson in a release.
5. Balto formed in winter of 2010 as a document of young men traversing the landscape of Siberia. Appropriately, their folk-rock sounds barren, lonely and searching. The guitars and voices mingle together in the wide, scary expanse of an unfamiliar environment - countless, inconceivable miles away from loved ones. Beyond this air of being so helplessly lost, Balto also possesses an admirable musicality and liveliness that helps to buoy the songs and fight back those aggressive gusts of cold foreign wind. Join their jounrney at 10 p.m. inside Le Voyeur.
