TACOMA ARTS MONTH EVENTS CALENDAR
Looking for arts and culture events in Tacoma? All year round? Start here.
ADD YOUR EVENT TO THE CALENDAR
Anyone can add an event to this calendar – it is open year-round and free to add events. Calendar listings must meet all of the following criteria:
- Be arts, culture, heritage, and/or science focused
- Take place within Tacoma city limits
- Be open to the public (ticketed, free, or RSVP-based)
Step 1
Click the ‘Add Event’ button above the calendar to submit. You will need your event name, date, time, location, brief description, image, and accessibility information.
For recurring events, submit once and use the recurring event option in the form. Please do not submit the same event multiple times.
Tacoma Creates-funded organizations who have entered their events on the Tacoma Creates events calendar do not need to resubmit here. Those events feed into this calendar automatically.
Step 2
All submissions are reviewed by staff within 2 to 3 business days. You will receive a notification when your event is approved or if it does not meet eligibility criteria.
Step 3
Once your listing is live, you can update it at any time. If your event changes or is canceled, please update your listing so community members have accurate information.
HOW TO USE THIS CALENDAR
To find events that match your interests or needs, search by date, use the Search button, or filter listings using the “Organizers” or “Tags” options.
