Art is perplexing. Artists are enigmatic and weird. Does this sound like anyone you know? Does it sound like you? If so, let the TRIPOD Slide Show be the equivalent of a SkillPath financial seminar for the bankruptcy of your artistic knowledge. Talented Tacoma artists command the Madera Architectural Elements Showroom once a month, illuminating their work and creativity with the visually aided enhancement implied by the name of the series. Created by Tacoma artist Lynn Di Nino, the night of digital slides features three local photographers and one creative theme.

The next TRIPOD Slide Show slides into Madera Friday featuring 15-minute slide shows by photographers Kevin Freitas, Sharon Styer and Chip Van Gilder under the theme "Tacoma."
