The Portland Art Museum journeys back to turn-of-the-century Paris, indie horror hits the Hollywood, the Ponderosa Lounge turns 50, and letterpress poetry lands on bus benches across the city.
Local bands cover campy love songs, the Portland Black Film Fest celebrates the 20th anniversary of Blade, Claudia Rankine brings her poetic genius to the Schnitz, and Dan Auerbach plays the Crystal.
