9th Annual Hilltop Street Fair – Saturday August 24th 11am – 7pm free all ages
The Hilltop Business Association presents Tacoma’s most prominent community event, The Hilltop Street Fair! This year, the fair returns on Saturday, August 24th, from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
In its ninth year, the Hilltop Street Fair celebrates summer with food trucks, beer gardens, vendor booths, live entertainment stages, activities for kids, and much more!
The Car Show will also return this year, and for the first time, the fair will feature a local Swap Meet currated by Por Vida NW, a 1on1 Basketball Tournament hosted by Gametime, and a Free Outdoor Movie in People’s Park presented by The Grand Cinema, where they will show Puss in Boots: The Last Wish.
The Hilltop Street Fair centers around the business district on 11th St and Martin Luther King Jr. Way, and People’s Park. Fairgoers can find ice cream, espresso, bakery items, chocolate confections, pubs, ethnic restaurants, and specialty stores open for business throughout the Hilltop Business corridor.
I’ll have new creations for you on Saturday.
The Baby Head Cup Mechanism T-Shirt.
For this project I selected artist Ian Wheelock to realize this image. I appreciated his skillful quirky style of illustration along with his love for technical robotic drawings. The first concept was completed in 2023 however it took another year to refine it into the image you see here. It was important for me to have all of the text in Kanji Japanese to lend it a sense authenticity. The Mechanism T-Shirt available in all sizes!
Rainbow Baby Head Cups!
Big Bold Colors make this unique Rainbow Baby Head Cup pop! Six transparent colors are combined into a veil featuring the traditional rainbow spectrum. This unique and time consuming process yields amazing results. Each run is produced from a larger “base tube” that is sectioned off into individual “starts”. This Venetian technique is a way to produce a design that is consistent throughout a number of pieces. Find me on 11th and L St at the Hilltop Street fair.
