FRIDAY
At Milepost 5, there’s a First Friday art show from Luke Buser called Details. Featured will 
be ten fumage (smoke paintings on canvas) and 35 concrete poetry-style pieces: “each piece consists of one swear word with the letters being collaged in a way to make the word unrecognizable up first look and somewhat pretty compared to its meaning!” 850 NE 81st Ave * 6 pm – 8 pm * free
First Friday in downtown Montavilla… I can’t find anything specifically going on, but generally according to the Montavilla/East Tabor Business Association: “Stark Street businesses stay open later featuring art, music and fashion on the first Friday of each month in Montavilla.”

SATURDAY
There’s a lecture on Native American Art of Oregon at Midland Library: “Portland State University scholar-in-residence Dr. Tracy J.
