Tarfest – the free, all-ages music and art festival going off Saturday at the La Brea Tar Pits Park – has announced set times for the five artists who are performing live. The afternoon affair will culminate with a 6 p.m. set from indie-pop favorites Hunter Hunted, who are taking a break from working on their debut album to play a hometown show.

Soulful garage-rock trio the Dead Ships kick off the afternoon, followed by psychedelic synth-poppers Tapioca and the Flea, pop ensemble DWNTWN and alternative rockers the Moth & the Flame. Presented by Launch LA and KCSN (88.5 FM), the 12th annual celebration of culture on the Miracle Mile kicks off at 1 p.m. and features live painting by noted local artists Greg “Craola” Simkins, Nicola Verlato and DevNGosha, an art pavilion featuring special exhibition of James Griffith’s paintings, children’s activities, a wine and beer garden and food trucks.
