Climate Curious Winter Lights Fest Walk & Talk
Bundle up and join us for a magical evening exploring light in the darkest season!
We're gathering for a Climate Curious Winter Lights Fest Walk & Talk to celebrate the art, creativity, and connection that warm us through winter. Together, we'll wander through Downtown Portland's stunning light installations, pausing to admire the glow and chat with fellow attendees along the way, including about this year’s festival theme: all the little things.
What to expect: A relaxed, social stroll with facilitated stops at the most breathtaking installations. Think of it as part gallery walk and part low-key winter adventure. We'll wrap up at the festival's cozy Glow Bar, where you can grab an optional nightcap and continue the conversation by the warmth.
The practical stuff: Let's meet Thursday, February 12th at 6pm in front of the World Trade Center building. Come prepared to walk through downtown rain or shine. The route is accessible and paced for conversation, not cardio. No matter the weather, the lights (and the company) will be worth it.
Why venture out on a cold Thursday night? Because the best antidote to winter darkness is gathering with others, finding beauty in unexpected places, and remembering what we're working toward together.
See you in the glow!
