FACIAL HAIR—The World Beard and Mustache Championships used to be an every-other-year affair. America’s most-zealous purveyors of ridiculous “freestyle chin-beards” and “Hungarian mustaches” would traipse off to Europe or Alaska, and mostly get trounced by Germans. This year marks the beginning of a yearly championship and—surprise!—it’s at the Keller. This time, friends, it’s for the money. DIRK VANDERHART
Keller Auditorium, 222 SW Clay, 1 pm, $10

COMICS—Portland’s got a ton of comic book shows, but Frankenstein’s Comic Book Swap is a standout—instead of costing a fortune and focusing on cosplay instead of comics, Frankenstein’s costs ONE MEASLY DOLLAR, takes over the charming Eagles Lodge, and features collectors selling their beloved comics, toys, movies, and weird old crap. It’s a friendly, low-key, and fantastic affair; chances are you’ll walk out with a few bizarre finds you’ll love more than life itself. ERIK HENRIKSEN
Eagles Lodge, 4904 SE Hawthorne, noon-6 pm, $1 ($5 early bird admission at 11 am), all ages
