The cases keep climbing, the temperature’s climbing right along with it, and if you look at the news, there’s about five metric tons of WTF constantly churning at 500 mph. It’s probably impossible to really escape any of this, but that’s not to say you can’t still try—and we’ve got plenty of things to do in Portland this weekend, including live music, live comedy (really!), livestreams, and more. And as our Editor-In-Chief likes to say: If you’re going to go out, Wash Ya Damn Hands, Wear Ya Damn Mask, hit the links below, and plan your weekend accordingly!

All Weekend
IN-PERSON EVENTS
Portland Art Museum Re-Opening
A big part of many Portlander’s weekend rituals pre-COVID involved stopping by the Portland Art Museum and soaking in all the thought-provoking beauty on display. Well, PAM is back. Of course, proper social distancing guidelines and safey protocols are being put in place, and if you’re thinking of heading outside, you better be safe and mask up—but if you’re ready to head downtown and enjoy the works of Robert Colescott in the Art and Race Matters exhibition, you can do that this weekend for free.
Zoigl-Lot Brew ‘n’ Q
For summer 2020, you can now make good use of the Zoiglhaus parking lot, which has been converted into a safely socially distanced dining area. Order up some beers, down some BBQ grub, and enjoy live music all weekend long from 4pm-8pm.
