Portland-area poet, writer, and general all-around neat person Nora Robertson is about to unveil the New Oregon Interview Series, debuting this Wednesday, June 24th, at everyone’s favorite cafe, Urban Grind East.

It looks to be a really amazing monthly series of coffee-talk, starting with this month’s music-themed evening, when Nora talks with local luminaries Slim Moon, Mic Crenshaw, and Alicia Rose.

Nora conceived the New Oregon Interview Series to find out how Portland’s blossoming creative culture has developed and where it’s headed. As she so rightfully points out, “A lot has changed in the past decade. The best perspective comes from the artists themselves—and the designers, writers, chefs, and venues who make things happen here.”

Join in the conversation starting this Wednesday. Go here to find out more about the series and to say hello to Nora. The 90-minute event gets underway at 7 p.m.
