Event Navigation
JOIN US IN THE GARDEN At CHAPMAN ELEMENTARY
“Make it a day ON . . . Not a day off”
It is time to take advantage of a day of service to make the Alphabet Garden a welcoming entrance on the face of Chapman School and to spruce up the Edible Garden in preparation for spring!
Chapman Elementary school is a public K-5 school in Portland Public Schools. Located in the northwest region if the city, Chapman serves one of the most economically diverse communities in the city. Every one of the over 600 students at Chapman visit the volunteer-run garden in the fall and in the spring. Together with their classmates they plant, care for and harvest fruits and vegetables like tomatoes, blueberries, kale, beans and peas. They learn about science, health and teamwork through hands-on activities in an outdoor classroom. The garden is also open during recess for students seeking a queiter space.
Join us as we prune, weed, pick up litter, prepare beds for spring planting, repair the fence, care for the tool shed, and more.

Tesla Coil Shows
More info: quarterworldarcade.com
QuarterWorld is a retro pinball museum, gaming arcade, and bar serving pizza, buns, and carnival inspired delights. With over 35 different pinball games and 60 classic and new arcade games there is something for everyone! Split up into 2 sides, Q Lab and Q Lounge, you can bring the whole family to have fun.
Tessi is their musical Tesla Coil. Created specifically for QuarterWorld in 2015 by Zeusaphone, LLC in Chicago. Tessi is unlike your everyday Tesla coil. Normal Tesla coils use a spark gap to create the electrical bolts and sounds that you hear. Tessi uses solid state technology which allows us to control the frequency and pulse rate of the electoral bolts giving us the ability to create music. Think of the sound track to old 8-bit video games and that is kind of what Tessi sounds like. Shows are Sundays & Tuesdays at 4 p.m. & 9 p.m. (more…)
