Parking/getting to event/etc.

Parking is available at the Schnitzer Parking Lot (map). Important Note: DO NOT park in the OHSU Collaborative Life Science Building, but the lot next to it. The Schnitzer Lot is free on weekends.

The event location has great access by bike. It is on the West end of Tilikum Crossing (a bridge) with wide bike paths on each side; and right on the route of a dedicated bike path going North-South from downtown Portland south along the river.

Four different rail lines go by the location. Check out the map at https://trimet.org/schedules/index.htm (rail system map). A number of buses go by the location as well.

Food

We won't be serving lunch to keep costs down. There are many restaurants and food trucks nearby the event location, and you can hop on the rail line or a bus to get downtown.

We have a private room for breast feeding - let us know if you need access either by emailing us (pdxrlang@gmail.com) or tell us at the event itself.
