There’s a couple things to have on your radar for this weekend: One, don’t forget to turn your clocks forward for Daylight Saving Time on Sunday, and two, kick off Women’s History Month at events like Song Suffragettes PNW: A Celebration of Female Songwriters and International Women’s Day Weekend at Freeland Spirits. Read on for more ideas, and check out our guide to this week’s top picks.

The Most Strange Telephone and Other Memories: a Release Reading
As someone who loves both photography and talking on the phone, I am very intrigued by Portland artist Leslie Hickey’s new book, The Most Strange Telephone and Other Memories. Stop by the IPRC this Friday for a free event where the artist will give a short reading and explain the process behind the creation of the book, which pairs “solicited telephone memories” with photographs. Often working on years-long series, Hickey is a member of Portland’s 2024/2025 Outer Voice Alliance, a collective of time-based artists. SHANNON LUBETICH
