Join CLAW and Tacoma Art Museum for our annual chalk contest!

June 20th 5-8 PM – Admission is free as part of Third Thursday

RSVP on Facebook

TAM has partnered with the Cartoonists League of Absurd Washingtonians again to bring you a summer evening of chalking! Get inspired by the exhibition “Beyond Books: The Independent Art of Eric Carle” and chalk a colorful creature during Third Thursday.

We will take photos of all the creations and upload them to Facebook and Instagram for the world to see!

Hear ye! Hear ye!! Join The CLAW at tomorrow evening’s OPEN SWIM Meeting, where we will attempt to answer the question: “WHERE ARE THEY NOW?” We will be taking beloved childhood icons of commercial excess that have fallen into disuse and pairing them with new career and lifestyle paths, hopefully to the amusement of everyone involved!! So come and join us Wednesday evening at 8:00pm down at King’s Books in lovely downtown Tacoma!!

On May 1st, Talon #3 challenged the rest of the CLAW to create images for May the 4th Be With You. Now it’s time for you to determine the winner. In the comments write I VOTE FOR and then select a single artist. Voting closes at midnight May 4th. Here is what the gang came up with:
