FIRST THURSDAY is when all of the galleries in portland's Pearl District stay open late and 'preview' their show for the upcoming month.
It is a great opportunity to browse the art and people watch.
Most galleries are open until 10pm (or even later)...
It is a cheap date- see art and be entertained all night for the price of a coffee!
You don't really even need a map, just follow the people!!!

If you are going for EXTRA CREDIT, you need to prove you've hit these places- take cell phone pics, collect postcards of the shows, do sketches of work, write reviews of the galleries you visit- just prove to me that you went and don't forget to get the NAMES of the galleries you went to and the ARTISTs that were showing there!!!!!
