Spark the Build | SHOWTIME

Step into a night of spontaneous collaboration, where local creatives team up to tackle rapid-fire challenges that spark bold ideas and new possibilities. It’s about pushing boundaries, experimenting with cutting-edge tools, and building something bigger together. This is a creative jam session,—fueling connection, innovation, and the energy to make downtown Portland a thriving hub for creatives once again. It’s a hands-on, interactive experience that fosters active listening and genuine connection—come as strangers and leave bonded in ways that matter.

Join us for a collaborative night of conversation, imagination, and creative plotting as we explore what Portland’s next great venue for live performance could be. From musicians and stand-ups to experimental acts and cross-genre performers—this is your invite to help design a space built for risk, residency, and raw, in-progress work. Let’s talk about what’s missing—and build what’s next.
