Dive into an ocean of inspiration, as we come together to celebrate our shared mission of protecting and restoring our precious natural resources. The Ground to Sound Film Fest is a call to arms by the City of Tacoma for the health of our neighborhoods, our marine ecosystems, and Tacoma’s future.
We believe everything we do supports healthy neighborhoods and a thriving Puget Sound, leaving a better Tacoma for all.
Join us for a family-friendly evening of oceanic art and inspiration! Hear from keynote speaker Dean Burke, CEO of Travel Tacoma. View award-winning film submissions. Enjoy curated poetry readings by Creative Colloquy. Peruse themed photography by the Tacoma Photo Center/Club.
