Friday, November 3 10:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. Saturday, November 4 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. Sunday, November 5 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. At the Expo Center - take the light rail

Artists: Own your space. Create your community.

The old Baptist Manor buildings on NE 81st & Oregon St. are being
transformed into affordable live/work condominiums and rental spaces, community, commercial and project spaces -- exclusively for artists.

With plans for ongoing interdisciplinary arts programming -- cultivating creative and professional development and community building -- the Milepost 5 vision is of a vital, empowering, supportive artists' community.

It is a place where working artists at all stages of their careers can
afford to buy or rent--to live, work and create among peers--and not
priced out of the neighborhood.
