Portland Saturday Market does not only open on Saturday, but also on Sundays. It is located at SW Ankeny Street and Naito Parkway.The Market provides opportunities for customers to meet the artist and their art pieces at the artist’s booth. Over 250 small businesses and individual artists from across the NW region gather each week for the Saturday/Sunday event with live music and a wide variety of foods that will satisfy the visitors.
There are beautiful glass hanging-decorations, beautiful pictures of Art, African crafts and drums, interesting human figure-heads made of ceramic and artistic lanterns made of fine pottery and many others.
One of the food stalls in the market sells Chowmein and fried rice at around US$5 to 6, a variety of chicken and spring rolls or salad rolls. Another sells drinks of strawberry, honey dew, peach, mango, red beans, coconut and taro. The third, Mandarin House, sells Chinese food advertised as healthy at around 5 to 6 U.S. dollars. The fourth sells sandwiches of vegetables, tomato, onion and meat-like bean-curd product, all wrapped up like Mexican “tarcos”.
