This Sunday the Center spent the day at Church! a semi-regular gathering of artists, crafters and entrepreneurs, in Portland, Ore., Or as the organizers write:
A ritualistic Sunday gathering to open dialogue in Portland’s creative community and expand on the narrow avenues that already exist for showing work. A gathering where nothing is sold, CHURCH! is a free space for sharing ideas and intermingling between artists working in a multitude of different medias.
Thanks to our good friends The Gorilla Meats Co. for helping organize the event and 220 salon for hosting everyone.
