All aboard! PortFringe Theater Festival kicks off our fifth birthday month by presenting metro(ACT)ive — a mobile public performance art project taking place as part of the June First Friday Art Walk on Friday June 3, 2016. Be on the lookout for a fleet of two-dimensional/cardboard metro buses moving through the Arts District corridor, pausing at actual Metro bus stops to present spontaneous and brief bus-themed performance art, and promote the upcoming PortFringe festival (taking place June 18-16, 2016). Interact with PortFringe Artists, grab a festival schedule and limited-edition metro(ACT)ive button and even climb aboard and join us on the route!
PortFringe will have a booth set up at Congress Square Park from 6:00PM-7:30PM, but here are the places you can interact with the mobile metro(ACT)ive performance art exhibit!
