just went to the "last thursday of the month" street fest on Alberta and it was great!

...i saw a flyer on Mississippi for their street party coming july 10th... and read in a tourist book about the pearls '1st thursday'... is there a comprehensive list somewhere of different neighborhood block parties/street fairs etc.?

i love the neighborhood vibes of these things even if there's loads of people not from the 'hood!

i know about craigs list already... just hoping there's a muncipal on-line thing or the like.

thanks!

I think you've just already compiled an exhaustive list of them yourself right here...

Since you started this thread I have tired to find such a list.... I don't think one exists.

From what I have found, there is 1st Thursday (Pearl), 1st Friday (Central Inner East Side, Multnomah Village, Sellwood, Clinton St., and now Montavilla), Last Thursday (Alberta?) , Third Thursday (Hollywood)

This is all I could glean from: http://www.portlandonline.com/oni/index.cfm?c=29020&a=189945 (broken link)
(This is a PDF file that is in alphabetical order. )

I could only find these for 2008 but you might be able to email each one to see what they're up to this year.
