‘Twilight Tuesdays’ for Summer Fun
The Oregon Zoo is offering visitors
a little something extra this summer:
A Twilight Tuesday special event each
third Tuesday night of the month through
August, featuring later hours and fun for
all ages at a deep discount.
Both the upcoming Twilight Tuesdays
on July 16 and the next event on Aug.
20 will feature animals that are active at
dusk, fun activities for families, food and
beverages from local vendors and live
entertainment. Zoo admission is just $9
per person after 4 p.m.
Also on hand: food carts from local
vendors, refreshing drinks and more —
plus the ever-popular elephant ears and
a selection of local beer and wine for
adults.
In the Face of Deep Biases
The Northwest Film Center at the Portland Art Museum,

the first woman filmmaker, an entertaining story of perseverance

Guy-Blaché,” shows Friday and Saturday, July 12 and 13 at 7
p.m. and again on Sunday, July 14 at 2 p.m.
