Twin Peaks: The Missing Pieces + The Return Episodes 1 & 2

Featuring special guest Gary Hershberger (Mike Nelson) in person!

Joins us for the complete Twin Peaks series on the big screen for the first time in history! We continue our year-long celebration of the greatest TV show of all time The Missing Pieces. Rarely shown in theaters, this feature film presents deleted scenes from Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me assembled together as an untold portion of the story’s prequel. Following a Q&A, we’ll then begin The Return with episodes “My Log Has a Message for You” and “The Stars Turn and a Time Presents Itself.”

Gary Hershberger will be signing autographs and taking photos with fans for an additional fee at the event.

Nerd Night

Get ready to laugh, get ready to learn, get ready to make some new nerdy friends.

Nerd Nite is a monthly event held in 100+ cities across the globe during which folks give 20-minute fun-yet-informative presentations across all disciplines – while the audience drinks along!

There are often bands, trivia, speed-friending, and other shenanigans as well.

Imagine learning about math feuds, the emu war of Australia, the genealogy of Godzilla, or zombie insects, while having a few drinks.

Portland Piano International: Jan Lisiecki

“a whole dancing world” Canadian pianist Jan Lisiecki performs an all-dance program spanning Martinů, de Falla, Szymanowski, Schubert, Bartók, Ginastera, Chopin, Brahms, Piazzolla, and Albéniz — from folk dances to the grand waltz. You’ll feel this program before you hear it! Piazzolla’s Libertango. Falla’s “Ritual Fire Dance.” A Chopin waltz, and the “Heroic” Polonaise that closes the afternoon. Waltz, tango, polonaise: these are dances our bodies instinctively want to move to, and on November 8 Jan Lisiecki, one of the most celebrated pianists of his generation, plays every one of them.
