TAM VISIT (TAcoma art museum) 2026

I try to take a trip up to some of the local museums at least once a year around my birthday. This year started with the Tacoma Art Museum. Not too far of a drive and not too expensive, I managed to arrive around opening which I never usually do but it made for a nice quiet morning before the groups arrived.
