For my Portland First Thursday money, Everett Street/Station Lofts usually has the best action. And this one…comes with a bonus. From Sequential Art Gallery (pic from their First Thursday Show):

Everett Station Lofts Annual Rooftop Extravaganza!
[Enter on Broadway between Sequential Art and Ogle]It is once again that time of year where Everett Station Lofts throws open its doors on the unsuspecting public and invites them to view an artists collective from the inside out. Literally. For those of you not in the know, the ESL art collective has a second story open air rooftop garden which is only accessible to the general population this one day a year, from 6 to 9 pm. Eat, drink and make merry to live entertainment and art from the residents of our fabulous building.
