You may have noticed already... we've had a ton of neighborhood visitors this week, and the festivities have only just begun. That's because the PLATFORM International Animation Festival kicked off earlier this week. This week-long event is the first and only major animation festival in the U.S.

PNCA is part of the mega art event, and tomorrow (Thurs., 6/28), they host Animation Inside Out, along with a big street party. Animation Inside Out is a one-night-only, self-guided walking tour of projections on walls and buildings throughout the Pearl. Projections begin around 8 p.m. and last until midnight. Stop by PNCA to grab a tour map. According to Julian over at PDX Pipeline, the PNCA street party will also feature a marching band and other fun entertainment, including a roving "projector car"... sounds very cool.
