Free Events in Portland: Oct 2–4 (Highlights Edition)
October 1st, 2009
It’s October, and you may be wondering what the future holds for this blog.
In the coming months, I’ll be working on redesigning the site. My goal is that the new site will look more like a calendar with some cool search capabilities that will make it easy to find free events in your area any day of the week.
As I work on redesigning the site, I am going to continue the “highlights edition” of this weekly post. If you have any feedback on this change, let me know. Thanks!
Now for this weekend’s free events.
