3. The opening reception for The Greater Tacoma Community Foundation's Foundation of Art Award, 2008-2010 exhibit at Kittredge Gallery runs from 5-7 p.m.The exhibition itself includes work by the 25 nominees featuring works range from painting, sculpture, and prints to video, jewelry, and embroidery, among other techniques. Materials are as diverse as felt, Legos, found cardboard signs, and repurposed books to the more traditional media such as oil, watercolor, ceramics, and photography.

4. Groove House will perform on the patio of Tocanos Café and Wine Bar in Puyallup beginning at 6:15 p.m.

5. The Tacoma Runners will summon their inner cowboy/girl for tonight's Giddyup Run. That's right, the Runners will don costumes for their weekly run, which begins at 6:30 p.m. at Big Whisky Saloon in downtown Tacoma. We're talking chaps people.
