Proctor Arts Fest

It has been organized by the Proctor Business District Association, along with community volunteers, since 1986. The goal of Proctor Arts Fest is to provide a free, accessible and celebratory experience of the arts for the public. Proctor Arts Fest attracts approximately 10,000 visitors from Tacoma, Pierce and Thurston Counties and 160 art and crafts vendors every year. In addition to the vendors, it features three stages of live music and entertainment (this includes one stage that is designated “The Family Stage” – organized by personnel of the Tacoma Public Library), a kids area with participation by the Metropolitan Park District, a Farmers’ Market and a merchant sidewalk sale. Come & enjoy live music and local entertainment, purchase original artwork or a craft piece from it’s maker. A great way to get to know your neighbors and practice building your community. Proctor Arts Fest is a family friendly event.
