November's "Evenings On The Waterfront" was a huge success. We drew folks from nearly every waterfront neighborhood and HOA ... from the east side and west side ... Dunthorpe to Sellwood to Riverplace.

The mission of Portland Waterfront Living is to strengthen Community, Commerce and Conservation along the Willamette River. Evenings On The Waterfront is a quarterly event and just one example of neighbors, merchants, authors, artists and artisans working shoulder-to-shoulder to strengthen our community.

Authors + Artists + Wine + Hors d'oeuvres

Ring in the Holidays on Monday, November 17th at 7:00 p.m. with Portland Waterfront Living's Evenings on the Waterfront featuring internationally acclaimed performance poet, David Hill, and funnyman Greg Mandel ("The Edge" columnist for The Oregonian). 

David is the funniest economist you'll ever hear and is certain to make you laugh as he reads from his book "Consumed."  Joined by publishers Ken Arnold and Connie Kirk, Greg Mandel will present scenes from his Pope detective spoof, High Hat, in a vintage radio-style performance. And, yes, Ken, Greg, Connie, and maybe even David will sing "The Song of the Amish." 

Relax with a glass of wine and a tasty snack as local artists Ellie Winds, Sidonie Caron, Stuart Ellis, Colleen Williams and Phillips Menks discuss their works displayed throughout Freeman Motor Company's showroom filled with fine European motorcars. 

And speaking of the holidays: the books and art and cars are for sale. The event, the food, and wine are free.

It's come-as-you are, but seating is limited so please RSVP with the number of guests in your party as soon as possible.
