Exhibit: Sketching Tacoma and Beyond

By Peg Doman.

Tacoma Urban Sketchers are mounting their second exhibit this year at the Foss Waterway Seaport from October 16 through January 7, 2019. The theme of Sketching Tacoma and Beyond means that there will be pieces showing local waterways, other Tacoma sites and sites from around the region.
