March 11 * 7 pm. Craft Night: Collage!

March 11 * 7 pm. Craft Night: Collage!

Tacoma Is For Lovers presents Craft Night! Each month features an artist who will introduce a new craft. The first 1 ½ hours will be devoted to learning the necessary techniques. After which, people can continue working on the activity or work on other projects. This month features Chris Sharp teaching collage. The project focuses on images from a 1980s book on breakdancing that participants will cut and re-compose to create a new work. The $15 fee covers materials plus a small donation to TIFL and King's Books. Please pre-register with sweet pea so that we know how many materials to bring!


Chris Sharp works in letterpress, painting, graphic design, installation, and vintage sign painting.


Tacoma Is For Lovers is a community-based organization which annually produces an Artist Craft Fair which promotes the visibility of local artists and encourages reuse, intentionality, sustainability and high craft.

The First of Many Craft Nights at King's Books!

Wow! What a great night we had.

Thanks you to all who came out and to Miranda Pollitz who led us in our felting adventure!

It was so great to see the 30 or so participants turn bright, cotton candy like wool into wonderful little birds.

With great anticipation we wait for March's Craft Night. It is not to be missed. Artist Chris Sharp will be leading a fantastic, break-dancing based collage workshop. Join us on March 11th at 7pm at King's Books. And be sure to RSVP to Sweet Pea. See you soon!
