It’s not too early to think about Hoedown, Cowpoke!

On Friday, October 23rd from 6:30-10 pm, don your best bib and tucker and join Sisters Of The Road at the Portland Art Museum for our annual Hoedown and Auction. Hoedown is Sisters’ biggest fundraiser of the year, and this year will be an extra special affair honoring all the great work Sisters has done in 2009 and celebrating our 30th birthday!

Uncle Earl and Casey Neill & The Norway Rats will be playing, so don’t forget your dancing boots!
