Hey Other_Portland (the one on the west coast) I'll be swinging through your town for a couple of days in March and would maybe like to hang out with some of you fine people. Looking right now like Wednesday, March 20th would be a great night for dinner and/or beers. [more inside]

OK that was not uplifting. Let’s get together and convivially get answers right!

Friends, let's do lunch. Let's do lunch at the Thai place that proudly posts its one-star Yelp review from "Alexa" (not me!) because it was "too spicy" and "doesn't even have pad thai". Yes, we're going to Baan Thai (WaPo review) in two weeks--come join us! As always, newcomers and visitors to DC are welcome. [more inside]

Brooklyn never left, of course. I did, but I'm coming back this fall and in the meantime, I want to go ahead and get the weekly meetup rolling at a ... slightly less than weekly pace. So how about this Saturday, the 16th, we all come on down to commonwealth; a "pretty decent bar" in the south slope, at 4pm or so? [more inside]

Have reserved a spot at the Jason George at 3:00 (in the back room that's on the right hand side just after you walk past the bar). Come one, come all if you can make it! Have chatted with a few folks and there a few of us who expect to be there well into the evening. Will update gathering status here throughout the afternoon/evening for those who might be able to make it later.

This Friday evening is the St. Johns Art Walk, an event in North Portland where local artists team up with local store owners to show off art in various storefronts in downtown St. Johns. I'll be participating, showing off some of my geometric painting work at Tinker-Maker Toys. [more inside]

Hi! I'll be trapped at LAX on Friday, much of the day. Love to get out and see some of the city and its people. [more inside]

Hey folks, I will be in town briefly on my way back to Sweden. Let us meet up on Thursday evening, March 14, at Hidden Harbor as suggested by several of you lovely folks. [more inside]

Second Sunday of the month. Monthly NYC crafters' meetup. All portable crafts welcome. TO NEWCOMERS: we typically pick a table in the top mezzanine (go up the stairs), in a corner towards the back.
