Fin De Cinema ‘Blow-Up’ Screening

Monarques, The Reservations & Rocky & The Proms
Thursday, May 12

We are too pleased to present the gorgeous yet maddening psychological thriller, Blow-Up. Certainly the essential cinematic portrayal of swingin’ 60s London, and also quite possibly one of the most well-loved and oft-referenced art films of all time. The chance to get inside the gloriously moody, restless universe of this picture has us speechless, so we’ll just borrow some words. Perhaps the promo slogan for Blow-Up upon its 1966 release is still the most apt descriptor: Read the rest of this entry »

Join your friends and neighbors in celebrating the fifth anniversary of the St. Johns Bizarre and Street Fair. The Bizarre was created in 2007 as a way to keep St. John’s parade-goers from packing up and heading home after the parade. It is a showcase of the unique and eclectic character of North Portland and displays all that our little community has to offer. The bizarre features local music, street performers, a vendor’s market, delicious food, kids crafts and a Bier Garten.

Located in the heart of downtown St. Johns, the bizarre is in close proximity to all of the wonderful business in the St. Johns town center. We hope you’ll join your neighbors and friends in coming together to celebrate our community. Schedule of Music after the jump… Read the rest of this entry »

Purchase Tickets from TicketMaster

Aladdin Theater

Kina Grannis has the type of story that makes you consider fist pumping.

She’s young, she’s real, and she has fought her way through the noise of record labels and agencies to bring you 100% independent singer-songwriter goodness. Sure, she writes disgustingly cutesy songs on her acoustic guitar, but she does something that your 17 niece can’t do — she sounds good doing it. And it’s working, obviously, as the internet-savvy songstress cranks out a steady stream of youTube videos that feature anything from Brittney Spears covers to surprisingly refreshing originals.
