This Memorial Day weekend marks the 78th anniversary of the Vanport Flood — the day the Columbia River erased Oregon's second-largest city and displaced thousands of Black residents who had built a life there.
We remember them.
In honor of that anniversary, we're offering 15% off ALL tickets through June 1.
Use code VJF15 at checkout.
This festival exists because of the community that survived. Come celebrate with us.

She brings something to a stage that can only be described as presence.
