On Valentine’s weekend, celebrate community and creativity at the Fall In Love With Lents community festival.

The Lents neighborhood in Southeast Portland has changed a lot over the past few years. Community members who live, work and play in Lents have created a special event for everyone to connect, create and explore.

Fall In Love With Lents is February 11-13, 2022 at Lents Town Center. Find out more about the events.
