Greek Festival

Name: Greek Festival
Date: First Weekend in October
Location: 3131 NE Glisan Portland, OR 97232
Contact information: www.goholytrinity.org/festival.php
Cost: Whatever you spend on food and knick-knacks
What is it: A festival of food and Greek entertainment

Info: After you’ve had your fill of your kielbasa and pirogis at Portland’s Polish Festival, rally the next week for the same thing done Greek style.

Pastries and good food are the starts of the show here, although music and church tours shouldn’t be missed. Cooking demonstrations are cheap and focus on favorites such as salads, dolmathes (stuffed grape leaves) and baklava.

Of course, Greek-related art and items are also available.
