Don't miss "First Thursday," when almost 40 art galleries open their doors wide and welcome browsers who love art. This is one of the most popular events for Portlanders and should be on your calendar too.
Finally, "Cinco de Mayo" fiesta at Tom McCall Waterfront Park is a major celebration in Portland, whose Sister City is Guadalahara. If you've never been, plan on it -- the food, music and other attractions are not to be missed.
Lodging: The Fulton House (503-892-5781), located in SW Portland, is very close to all these venues, and we offer the quiet and privacy you'll want after attending one or more of next week's events.
