Port Orford Christmas Art Walk on December 8!

On Saturday, from 2 to 5 PM, December 8, sixteen of Port Orford's colorful art galleries and shops that feature arts and crafts are hosting a Christmas Art Walk. Bundle up to enjoy art, music, gifts, refreshments and, at around 5pm, the lighting of the Port Orford Crab Pot Christmas Tree at TriAngle Square. The "Heaven and Nature Singers" will be caroling at different spots along the way. Warm up with an Irish coffee at Paula's and/or a Christmas Cocktail at Red Fish.
