XRAY will be there, come say hello! When was the last time you got to see an award-winning short film and a collection of experimental, fine art video shorts by local PDX filmmakers and artists? View "The Last 8," a 20-minute sci-fi film and meet the filmmaker, Keith Apland, and view a video art show curated by EFFPortland's Benjamin Popp, and works from students at the NW Film Center.
Cost is a $10 food and drink minimum per person spent at the bar, with all profits going to a charity of your choice. Film, art, friends and fun - what better way to spend a Wednesday night? Party opens at 7 p.m., screening starts at 8 p.m. Hosted by Drink and Draw in Portland.
Please join them on Monday, January 12th, 2015 at 7:30pm, at the Sellwood Public House (8132 SE 13th Ave, Portland, Oregon) for "Treasure Lost, Treasure Found," an evening of TRUE stories of lost treasure in Portland and other nearby Oregon locales. The event, part of the Stumptown Stories Series, is free - which is ironic - because you could leave the pub STINKING RICH! Everyone will be given a REAL LIVE Treasure Map of a considerable lost horde that can be located in the City of Roses.
Come out to Beech Street this Thursday for an evening of analog aural delights in your favorite neighborhood parlor.
Graeme (hat collector, music maker, Houndstooth drummer) and Theo (Rontoms Sunday booker, XRAY.FM DJ, Máscaras bassist) are going to be ping ponging blues, psych, prog, pop, country, afro-beat, rock and more all night.
You've heard Anjali & The Kid on XRAY"s Chor Bazaar and they're ringing in the New Year with a night at the Bassanova Ballroom.

Season of Lights Holiday Benefit Concert ~ A Celebration of commUNITY and Peace The annual Season of Lights Holiday Concert is scheduled for Saturday, December 13th, 7:00 p.m. in St. Anne's Chapel at beautiful Marylhurst University. Now in its seventh year, Peter Zisa and Friends’ free Season of Lights (SOL) concert has become an anticipated community tradition which provides a meaningful and unifying celebration of the holiday season that all members of the community can enjoy. Drawing from the four corners of the Portland metro, the program’s performers represent a collage of the cultural and faith traditions of the community.
Appearing on this year's program are La Rhonda Steele, Portland's premier gospel singer and director of the Portland Interfaith Gospel Choir, talented singer-songwriter Ilene Safyan & Chaverim performing an wonderful eclectic blend of Jewish music (Sephardic and Ashkenaz), the beautifully creative guitar compositions of John Dodge, an effervescent performance of Brazilian choros by guitarist Maria Olaya, colorful Slavic melodies performed by violin virtuoso Tatiana Kolchanova, the delicate and euphonious tones of flutist LeeAnn McKenna and Yukiko Yamaguchi (koto, Japanese harp) of the celebrated world music ensemble Thousand
Waves, and Peter Zisa himself, acclaimed classical guitarist and disciple of Spanish guitar legend Andres Segovia. While admission is free, in the spirit of unity and goodwill, SOL invites all attendees to give generously in support of two worthy and extraordinary non-profit organizations: the Community Transitional School, an independent non-profit school that serves K-8th grade children whose families are homeless. And Tivnu: Building Justice, a non-profit youth organization that builds homes for the homeless in coordination with Habitat for Humanity. "Tivnu: Building Justice is a non-profit organization that addresses the fulfillment of basic human needs through Jewish learning, leadership development, and hands-on social justice work."
