For the month of November, the Utrecht supply store will be exhibiting political art. They've released a non-juried open call for any and all 2D art on a political theme. The work should be no more than 36"x48", and ready to hang. Bring up to two works to the store on November 1st, 2nd, or 3rd for the hanging. You can learn more about the project on their blog.


Local artist "Abe" is seeking contributions for his Neighborhood Diaries project. Got a memory, any memory, from the Buckman, Boise, Downtown, Northwest, and King/Vernon neighborhoods? Get in touch with him and share your story (anonymously if you prefer). He'll be putting the stories together into a podcast walking tour of Portland, told through the anecdotes of local residents instead of the traditional urban history. You can read all about the project here.
