Meet at 10 am just outside the main entrance.  Unless you want to do so, you don't have to pay to go through the Museum.  There is art to sketch without actually paying admission.  Also, some of us have guest passes to share.  



Parking info is here:  http://www.tacomaartmuseum.org/visit/plan-visit/

There is free parking at Freighthouse Square garage.  Then take the lightrail (tram)... it stops within walking distance of Tacoma Art Museum at Union Station.




For those who wish to venture further afoot there is the Union Station Court House - also free. It has a beautiful Victorian dome inside.


And as many of us know TAM is a great place to lunch after.
