How can I call a SaltStack module with a list of arguments

Question

Given the following function in a SaltStack module called salty, how do I sent a sequence to the event function for the tags argument, that is tags should be a Python list:

def event(name, desc, tags=None):
    assert type(tags) == list

I expected the following to work but it doesn't:

salt-call salty.event myname mydesc tags=tag1,tag2,tag3
