Join us on July 25 from 12-6pm for the 21ten Community Street Fair!
We're taking over our street. Legally. It's a neighborhood street party that happens to have an indoor stage.
On Saturday, July 25th, 21ten Theatre is throwing open its doors — and its entire block — for our Second Annual Street Fair, and we want ALL of Portland there. We’re lookin' at you, theater nerds, performers, Ladd's Addition dog walkers, Hosford-Abernethy neighbors who've always wondered what that building with the red awning is about, people who make things, and anyone who's ever eaten a hamburger outdoors and thought, "Now, this is living!"
​
Here's what's happening:
​
Games in the street. Street performers. A dunk tank. Ping pong. Craft tables. Food (burgers, dogs, salad, dessert) and drink (yes, wine and beer). Local theaters setting up tables and sharing their message. Local crafts makers and vendors demonstrating and selling their wares. And inside the theater — all day long — live performances ranging from comedy to music to poetry to pure theatrical chaos, all five to ten minutes long. Times posted outside. Wander in whenever.
​
Want to be a part of making it happen?​​

Street Performers

Help run the games, work the food, sell raffle tickets, set up, tear down, or generally make magic happen.
Lead
We're looking for a few good humans to join our weekly planning team between now and July 25th.
Contribute
Local businesses and individuals, we'd love donations of food, raffle items, or anything that adds to the fun. SE Portland neighbors, this especially means you.
​​This event is about the neighborhood. It's a celebration of Portland's theatre community. It's a very good reason to be outside in July. And it's going to be a lot of fun — we're committed to that above all else.
​
21ten will be there. The street will be blocked off. The dunk tank will be full of sharks.
