EVENTS
XY&Z for Write Around Portland
Saturday, October 3, 7:30-10pm
Imagine a cocktail party where everyone types a paragraph or two of a collective novel on a vintage typewriter, plays a hand of word poker around a marble Saarinen table or tries their skills at speed Scrabble in the comfort of an Eames chair. Add in a silent auction of journals designed by Storm Large, Dave Eggers, Cory Schreiber, Queen Bee and other Portland favorites, along with broadsides created by ten renowned book artists and you’ve got XY&Z—a uniquely Portland, uniquely Pearl fundraiser to celebrate Write Around Portland’s tenth anniversary. Join us for word games, music, light fare provided by Vibrant Table (www.vibranttable.com) and beverages including an XY&Z specialty cocktail.
All proceeds for XY&Z will support Write Around Portland’s unique programs. Fundraiser tickets start at $50 and can be ordered at www.writearound.org or by calling 503.796.9224.
