Portland Staycation: Winter Edition
Portland Staycation: Winter Edition
This February marks the launch of Portland’s first Winter Staycation, a new way for Portlanders to rediscover the cozy joy of winter in the heart of the city. Created in partnership with the Portland Winter Light Festival, the Winter Staycation brings friends, families, and neighbors together for two weekends of celebration downtown.
The experience highlights everything that makes winter in Portland vibrant, from Blazers and Winterhawks games to acclaimed theater productions, live concerts, intimate dining, and thoughtful local retail. These offerings unfold alongside the Winter Light Festival’s signature light installations, pop up performances, and activities designed for all ages.
Participants are encouraged to book a stay at a participating downtown hotel, dine out, explore local shops, and fully show up for the city. The Winter Staycation is designed to activate downtown from within, shaped by Portlanders and meant for Portlanders.
Throughout the weekend, retailers, restaurants, and local event creators will offer special programming and one of a kind experiences. It is an opportunity to remind ourselves, and show others, what is possible downtown when the community comes together.
Let organizers know you are in; rally friends, coworkers, and communities, and take part in reimagining downtown Portland as the destination it continues to be.

Monthly Keaton Otis Vigil
The monthly vigil for Keaton Otis is held at 6pm on the 12th of every month. Keaton Otis was a young Black man killed by the Portland police on May 12, 2010 in Lloyd in 2010 at NE 6th and NE Halsey. The police admitted they stopped him for “looking like a gangster”. Keaton’s father Fred Bryant started the monthly vigil on the 12 of the month after his son’s murder on the spot where Keaton’s life was taken. Fred Bryant did this for over three years, fighting for justice for his son, every single month in the rain, the dark, the heat, and the snow. Fred Bryant passed away on October 29, 2013.
His family and community have committed to continuing the vigils every month on the 12th, until justice is achieved for Keaton, for Fred, and for our whole community.
Since 2019 Lloyd EcoDistrict has been working with the Black-led Justice for Keaton Otis collective to memorialize the life of Keaton Otis. Join us and community members at the corner of NE 6th and NE Halsey on the 12th of every month at 6:00 PM to remember Keaton and call for justice.

The police admitted they stopped him for “looking like a gangster”. Keaton’s father Fred Bryant started the monthly vigil on the 12 of the month after his son’s murder on the spot where Keaton’s life was taken. Fred Bryant did this for over three years, fighting for justice for his son, every single month in the rain, the dark, the heat, and the snow. Fred Bryant passed away on October 29, 2013.
His family and community have committed to continuing the vigils every month on the 12th, until justice is achieved for Keaton, for Fred, and for our whole community.
Since 2019 Lloyd EcoDistrict has been working with the Black-led Justice for Keaton Otis collective to memorialize the life of Keaton Otis. Join us and community members at the corner of NE 6th and NE Halsey on the 12th of every month at 6:00 PM to remember Keaton and call for justice.

Food Court 5000 @ Lloyd Center
Food Court 5000
The Food Court 5000, a Portland-based, retro-fitness, mall-walking movement and possibly the best reason to dust off your spandex and hit the mall. They are a community of fast-walking, snack-loving, retro-fabulous weirdos who believe that fitness should be fun, free, and just the right amount of ridiculous.
Every Sunday at 11 AM, they gather at Lloyd Center Mall for an hour and a half of high-energy strutting, power-walking, and occasional jazz hands. It’s part workout, part performance art, and all-around a great excuse to take over a shopping mall in the name of nostalgia and movement.
What do they do?
Power-walk like they’re being chased by an aggressive kiosk salesperson
Maybe break into spontaneous mall aerobics (no promises, but high probability)
Make the Lloyd Center their own personal runway
This isn’t your grandma’s mall-walking club (though she’s definitely invited). They encourage spandex, windbreakers, neon, and making questionable but fabulous fashion choices.
No sign-ups, no fees, no judgment! Just sweaty camaraderie and a mall takeover that might one day be outlawed.
So, lace up, show up, and walk like you just saw your ex by the food court.

Keaton’s father Fred Bryant started the monthly vigil on the 12 of the month after his son’s murder on the spot where Keaton’s life was taken. Fred Bryant did this for over three years, fighting for justice for his son, every single month in the rain, the dark, the heat, and the snow. Fred Bryant passed away on October 29, 2013.

Join Lloyd EcoDistrict for their monthly cleanup at Peace Memorial Park. This event is based in Peace Memorial Park and covers the surrounding areas (Eastbank Esplanade/Duckworth Dock/Convention Center). The clean-up event will include trash pick-up, sprucing up Peace Memorial Park, and removing graffiti around the area.

About Peace Memorial Park: Connected to the Eastbank Esplanade, intersected by one of Portland’s busiest bikeways, and graced with expansive views of the Willamette River and the downtown skyline, Peace Memorial Park was established as a public place to honor victims of war, both military and civilian, by the Porland chapter of Veterans for Peace.

“Willamette: River to the People” A Portland River Culture Photo Exhibition and Beach Party
“Willamette: River to the People” A Portland River Culture Photo Exhibition and Beach Party
Join our partners and friends at the Human Access Project and photographer Dustin Patterson (_split.time_) for a one-of-a-kind beach party… in November!
To make it feel just like a day at the river, our friends from PopCartPDX will be spinning tunes, just as they did for our Lloyd Live at Duckworth Dock series. The event, hosted at The Jupiter Hotel, will also feature a wood-fired mobile sauna.
This party celebrates the unveiling of photographer Dustin Patterson’s new zine, “DUCKWORTH.”
We are so excited to support this, as the zine is a collection of images from Duckworth Dock and features many beautiful moments from our own community programming. Dustin Pattison is a Portland-based street photographer. In his own words, “Street photography is my primary means of exploring and documenting communities and the ways we interact with each other and our shared environment. With a keen eye, I set out to capture the meaningful, authentic, or poignant moments within the frenzy of city and public life.”
If you spent time on the Willamette this summer, are excited about Portland’s emerging river culture, and love an excuse to hang out in a robe in public, this exhibit is for you!
This is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate a public space we all helped activate. Come dressed for a beach party (swimsuits and bathrobes are encouraged!) to support the partners who make our community so vibrant.
