Sam loves to venture out to the neighborhoods cultural and art events as well as hosting events right here at City Hall!
Here are just a few community and special events we have enjoyed this year:
Sam passing out bike maps at Bridge PedalBridge Pedal [0]
Whether you are just waiting for your chance to ride your bike on the Freemont Bridge or be part of the sea of thousands of your bicycling neighbors, this event is sure to please. Sam and his staff were happy to hand to pass out bike maps and encourage the riders.
Sam at Foster Art WalkFoster Art Walk [0]
Foster Avenue is making a name for itself as an art magnet--especially with the opening of such great local galleries, coffee shops, restaruants--even an independent comic book shop! Sam and his team stopped by to enjoy the great art and music in this up and coming SE cultural hub.
Sam Gets his First Tattoo!Portland Pirate Fest [0]
The second annual Portland Pirate Fest brought out hundreds of families to Cathedral Park in St. John's. What a sight to see--tons of booths, great food, and most people clad in their swashbuckling outfits! Sam was on hand emceeing part of the event and talking about clean watersheds and a healthy Willamette River.
Divine Inspiration by Antoinette MyersART UP--Look Up Project [0]
We were so excited to be working with this local non-profit who works with teens to paint portraits of local women leaders of color. We honored two of the women featured in the art work--Senators Margaret Carter and Avel Gordly. This event was a lively multi-generational affair--with many of the featured women attending along side the artists who painted their image.
Sam emcees Junk to Funk 2007Junk to Funk [0]
Sam "glam" Adams was again the emcee for the second annual Junk to Funk 'Trashion' Show. A visual quandry, this unique event highlights the great 'recycled' designers thinking of innovative ways to "wear" their trash!
This event is is part fashion show, part public service announcement: incredible, wearable art pieces as well as environmental factoids and tips.
