Donut.js

Donut.js is a monthly meet-up in Portland, OR with a handful of wonderful talks on tech, creativity, community, and the places they come together.

The next Donut.js is on Tuesday, June 26th at 6pm at Alchemy Code Lab at 30 NW 10th Ave (right across from Powell’s—see a map).

Tickets are $10 and include donuts and refreshments!

Every month, our proceeds go to a local non-profit. This month we are raising money for Sisters of the Road, ‘a nonprofit Cafe in Portland’s Old Town neighborhood working to create systemic change that will end poverty and homelessness forever by providing nourishing meals in a safe, dignified space.’

Details on the venue, accessibility, food, and goodies.
