Art Openings @ Portland East Side

Opening night Friday November 3, Shows up all month.

In the 811 E. Burnside mega art complex:
Yes continues last month's embroidery - quilt-y show. Yes is going virtual, so if you know of a creative business that would fit the 811 zeitgeist, make your move to occupy the space.

Moshi Moshi has small drawings and paintings by William McCurtin.

Denwave throws open their back studio with spooky candles and smores.

The Grass Hut has a yarn and driftwood shelter shrine pod and a group show of small work. Arrive at 6 with a 2-3 person team team or not for a scavenger hunt, the scav-obs will be revealed at 6 and not before. Trophies will be awarded for first, second and last place. The hunt ends at 7 sharp.

Redux shows their reuse-recycle objects.



Ty Ennis shows drawing oriented work with maybe a little watercolor wash here and there and a lot of white space. His compositions successfully provide a restful enigma by reducing the elements in each to the minimum, New American Art Union http://www.newamericanartunion.com/ 922 SE Ankeny
