June 25 Some Closing Events and a Hoedown

Shows open and they close. Sometimes the closing is an event too. That would be the case this evening.


The Nationale show (Not) So Bright, Please, in which artists transformed some brightly colored materials into new work over the month, closes tonight. See what those bright artists did! Musicians White Fang perform at 8. At Nationale thenewnationale.com 811 E Burnside Free



Worksound's sound and music themed show, Cadence has a closing party as well. At Worksound www.worksoundpdx.com 820 SE Alder Free



Meanwhile Project Grow, a social practice art project, throws a Summer hoedown. They transformed a brownfield growing car parts and blackberries into an organic farm that operates as a CSA. It's part of a project for intellectually disabled adults who also participate in visual art projects and yoga. Good all around. Tonight they open their projects to you and give you a chance to meet many of the people making this special Portland project. Music by SAFE, Jeffrey Jerusalem and a special guest.
