575 Invades Tacoma!

This last weekend was a great step forward in the evolution of 575. We officially had our own branded booth with signage, stickers and member's repping.

We met a ton of great people got a ton of great feedback and conspired amongst ourselves for a ton of great future.. er, my rhetoric got a bit week with that last bit... :)

There are surely amazing things on the horizon, stay tuned.

For now, enjoy a few pics:

Hats, hats, hats... they are a magnet for trouble! ;)



For those of you we met and stopped by, thanks much. We surely hope to see you in the future.

April's Project - Toy Mashup

The group project for this last month was Toy Mashup. Sean provided 2-3 boxes full of Funko toys that were free for the taking to mix and mash as each person saw fit. Of course everyone delivered nothing but top quality.

They’re akward, anti-social and a little disturbed, just like you. Come see new works by local artist Justin Hillgrove and remember, they’re more afraid of you...

Justin Hillgrove grew up in Snohomish, WA. He studied Design and Illustration at Seattle Central and has since enjoyed many years of freelance illustration and design, working on everything from collectible card games to bobble heads. Justin's “Imps and Monsters” series is his creative outlet. The creatures depicted and the satyrical situations they find themselves in are reflections of moments which Justin finds amusing, many of which are inspired by his children.
