Beer Machines: A Steampunk Ode To The Craft Revolution

Beer is a beautiful thing, so why shouldn't it be dispensed out of something a bit more stylish than a plastic pitcher? Steampunk merges beauty with industry for Deschutes Brewery's party to celebrate the Craft Brewer's Conference; local artists compete to create the best Beer Machine. Also featuring a circus act of live entertainment including contortionists, burlesque, and live music. And yes, this is the perfect opportunity to don that top hat/aviation goggle/metal girdle get-up you have been dying to wear. 8 pm-1 am. Pure Space. $20, adv. $25, door.

Free Entrance into National Parks

We live so close to the deepest lake in the U.S., we sometimes forget to stop by and enjoy it in person, as opposed to just looking at the picture on the Oregon license plate on the car in front of us. Be sure to check current weather conditions at nps.gov before heading out.
