Our Portland Story Launch Party – September 23rd

We invite you to join us as Our Portland Story celebrates its inaugural book launch on September 23rd, 2010. The event is FREE and books will be available for the first time, for $28, cash only.

The party will be hosted by the wonderful folks at Mississippi Studios, and the event is all ages. We will host the party out on the patio unless the weather pushes us inside. The party will be private, limited to authors, designers and their guests from 5:30-6:30. Then from 6:30-8:30 the party will be open to the public and feature readings from selected OPS authors: Lois Leveen, Richard Mavis, Natalie Morad El-Jourbagy, Dan Haneckow, Katy Kavanaugh, Joy Cartier, Matt Wiater, and Paul Sorenson.
