Artsy My Turn for a Shameless Auction Plug
Posted by Alison Hallett on Fri, Dec 5, 2008 at 5:00 PM
The "You and the Portland Art World" package is currently at $103.50. That is almost $50 less than the value of the package's Fertile Ground pass ALONE, not to mention the two tickets to any Artist's Rep show, 4-pack to any Portland Center Stage shows, two tickets to any show at the Miracle Theater, four White Bird tickets, dual membership to PICA, admission to Ethan Rose's upcoming show at Oaks Park, where he'll be playing the pipe organ... I don't know the total value of this package, and I'm not even going to attempt to figure it out right now, because there's karaoke-shame where my reasoning capacity should be. But it's a whole lot more than $103.50.
Now, back to watching YouTubes of sleeping kittens. It helps.
