Milepost 5 is not so far away. It's a short walk from the 82nd Avenue MAX stop. Before the Pearl was the Pearl, all doubted artists could colonize it. So maybe 82nd Avenue is the next frontier. Milepost 5 is a legal(!) live-work space, with the potential for artist-owners to accumulate equity(!). They have hired the director of the Portland Art Center to activate it.
This show is themed self projection.
