Tacoma Art Museum officials have announced a celebration will be held this weekend to mark the 10th anniversary of its headquarters building downtown.

“Architect Antoine Predock saw in Tacoma’s misty, muted light a great opportunity to design a building that almost disappears into its surroundings, much like how Mount Rainier fades depending on the light and weather,” said museum spokesperson Lisa Terry. “The building’s stainless steel skin pays homage to its industrial, port city surroundings as its silver patina glistens in the Northwest’s watery light.”

The museum, which is located at 1701 Pacific Avenue, will host a Birthday Spring Festival on Sat., May 4 between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. The family-oriented celebration will feature a variety of activities to choose from, including a magician, live music, and hands-on art activities. Museum admission and all festival events will be free of charge for Saturday’s celebration.
