Los Angeles is a place where budding artists gather, work, live and play. So it's no coincidence that a festival founded to encourage the exposure of moviemakers, musicians and artists at all stages of their development should take place in the historic Miracle Mile district of Los Angeles. TARFEST, named for the La Brea Tar Pits of the area, is sponsored by the Miracle Mile Players, a group that feels their city, and the Miracle Mile in particular, needs and wants more community, pedestrian, cultural and really fun-events.
