Art Speaks LOUDLY!

A multi-faceted and multiple media art showcase in the heart of Portland. 

Step into a dynamic, two-night celebration of creativity where art isn’t just displayed—it’s experienced. This immersive art show brings together a diverse lineup of mixed-media artists, each offering a unique perspective through visual art, performance, and storytelling.

Throughout the event, artists take the stage to share the inspiration, process, and meaning behind their work, creating an intimate connection with the audience. From live demonstrations to spoken word, music, and experimental performances, the stage becomes a space where disciplines blend and creativity unfolds in real time.

Guests are invited to explore curated exhibits while indulging in thoughtfully crafted food pairings, alongside a selection of cocktails and wines designed to complement the artistic atmosphere. Whether you’re an art enthusiast, a collector, or simply curious, this event offers a rich, multi-sensory experience where conversation, flavor, and creativity come together.

Join us for two unforgettable nights where art speaks, performs, and invites you to be part of the story.

Events like this are expensive to operate. This is a small business operating in a struggling economy, solely owned and operated by a low-income mom. You get it. We need to keep costs passive, it at all possible.

Tickets are all ages, adult beverages available with valid ID (proof of 21+). $20.00. Tickets at the door: $25.00. These tickets support event insurance, building rent, event permitting, infrastructure rentals, staffing labor, and supplement artist grants. You get food and culture out of it - so why not support these emerging and important artists breathing life into our community when times are questionable at best, in our society?
