Winter Lights Urban Walk & East Ender Social

The Portland Winter City Lights are brightening our nights, thanks to artist Pandora LaCasse's light installations. Let's take an urban, 2 1/5 mile walk around downtown Portland as we watch the sunset and view the Pandora Lights. We'll start at Lincoln Park near the corner of Congress and Pearl Street, walk through the Old Port and up Free Street to catch a glimpse of "Porthenge" as the sun sends it waning light in line with the State Street Church steeple. Then, we'll head toward One Longfellow Square and back down Congress to view the rest of the light installations.

We'll end our walk with an optional stop at the East Ender (or nearby pub). And, for those who want more nightlife, you can stay at the East Ender for Karaoke (also optional). You can join us for the walk and/or the East Ender Pub. As always, you are responsible for running your own tab. Cash is appreciated if we are at tables and splitting bills.

START TIME: 4 p.m. at Lincoln Park, Portland, Maine
EAST ENDER meetup time (47 Middle Street, Portland): 5:45/6 p.m.
(Karaoke starts at 8 p.m., if you want to stay later)

Be sure to dress for the weather, including appropriate shoes for the potentially slick sidewalks.
