Come do your last-minute holiday shopping at local retail shops, get a warm holiday drink courtesy of FABA and Kainos Coffee, and enjoy the sounds of caroling from Blueprint Ensemble Arts who will be singing to passersby and in front of local businesses (near 64th and Foster).

Cocoa and cider will be provided free from 3-5pm in front of Hammer + Jacks (6406 SE Foster) while supplies last. Blueprint Ensemble Arts will perform nearby during this time, too. We will also be set up in front of Hammer + Jacks and will give out limited gift cards from local businesses further down the road to encourage support of all FABA businesses.

Additionally, we’ve partnered with Prosper Portland and the Portland Events & Film Office to utilize American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds for a cool activation at Larkspur and Higher Self (between SE 63rd & 64th on Holgate). Both businesses have decorated their storefronts and will host a busker to play music outside starting at 4pm.
