SUMMARY:Free Thursday Nights at Tacoma Art Museum
DESCRIPTION:Tacoma Art Museum stays open until 8 p.m. on Thursdays\, and admission is free from 5 o'clock on. That's three hours to see Northwest and Western art in the Haub Family Collection\, the Kent Monkman and Grafton Tyler Brown pairing before it closes Jan. 3\, and the new Internet Speed show from Nov. 21. The museum sits on Pacific Avenue across from Union Station and a short walk from the Link stop\, so it's easy to fold into dinner downtown. Regular admission is $18 for adults the rest of the week.

SUMMARY:First Thursday in the Pearl
DESCRIPTION:Since 1986\, Pearl District galleries have kept their doors open late on the first Thursday of the month for openings\, receptions and a chance to meet the artists. The walk clusters in the blocks around NW 9th Avenue between Burnside and Glisan\, and it's a low-key way to see what Portland artists are making this winter. The Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust Education on NW Davis waives admission for the evening. Winter walks are quieter\, which means better conversations.

SUMMARY:Portland Opera: La Traviata
DESCRIPTION:Portland Opera opens its season's big stage with Verdi's La Traviata\, the story of Violetta\, a woman who chooses love and her own terms over polite society's verdict\, and pays for it. It's one of the most beloved operas ever written\, packed with tunes you'll recognize\, and an ideal first opera if you've been meaning to try one. Sung in Italian with English captions projected above the stage. Students get $15 seats by phone\, and Oregon Trail Card holders may qualify for $5 tickets.

SUMMARY:Hollywood Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:A Saturday market on NE Hancock between 44th and 45th in Northeast Portland's Hollywood district. It keeps its weekly schedule right up to December 19\, which makes it one of the more dependable east-side stops for the supporting cast of a Thanksgiving turkey or a few last-minute edible gifts. After the holidays it shifts to a twice-monthly winter schedule from January through March\, so December is the last weekly stretch until spring.

SUMMARY:Beaverton Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Beaverton's Saturday market wraps its main season on November 21\, filling the west lot of the Beaverton City Library on SW Hall Boulevard between 3rd and 5th. The last three Saturdays bring the late-fall Tualatin Valley harvest to the table\, along with the bakers and food makers people lean on for Thanksgiving week. Morning hours run 8:30 to 1:30. If you miss it\, the market comes back for a smaller winter run in early 2027.

SUMMARY:University District Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Every Saturday\, year-round\, farmers take over University Way NE between 50th and 52nd\, two blocks from the U District light rail station. Winter is the season for squash\, roots\, apples and hardy greens\, and the market's chef demo series keeps going into December: the Husky Culinary Club on Nov. 7\, Anna of Yoka Miso on Dec. 5 and Caroline Wright on Dec. 19. SNAP shoppers get an unlimited dollar-for-dollar match at the manager's booth. Parking in the nearby U Heights lots is a suggested $3 donation\, but the train is easier.

SUMMARY:Edmonds Museum Holiday Market
DESCRIPTION:The Edmonds Historical Museum's street market moves into holiday mode on six Saturdays in November and December\, filling 5th Avenue North and Bell Street just outside the old Carnegie library building that houses the museum. Farmers\, bakers and specialty food producers set up next to artisans selling handcrafted gifts and artwork\, and holiday greenery is a big draw. There's music\, and the shops of downtown Edmonds are steps away\, so it's an easy morning to combine with lunch near the ferry dock. Note there's no market on Thanksgiving weekend.

SUMMARY:Proctor Farmers' Market
DESCRIPTION:Tacoma's only year-round farmers market sets up every Saturday in the Proctor District through Dec. 19. Shoppers come from across the city for local vegetables and flowers\, meat and seafood\, artisan foods\, beer and cider\, and prepared food\, usually with a local musician playing and plenty of dogs to watch. The surrounding blocks are full of independent shops\, coffee and restaurants\, which makes it a natural start to a North End Saturday. SNAP shoppers can double their dollars with Market Match at the info booth.

SUMMARY:Portland Farmers Market at PSU
DESCRIPTION:Portland Farmers Market's flagship keeps its Saturday rhythm all winter in the South Park Blocks on the Portland State campus. The winter market is smaller than the summer crush\, which makes it easier to talk with the farmers\, bakers\, ranchers and cheesemakers who still show up in the cold. It's the one Portland Farmers Market site open every Saturday through the season\, closing only on December 26\, so it doubles as a dependable stop for holiday baking supplies and Sunday-dinner ingredients.

SUMMARY:Lake City Farmers Market (Fall Saturdays)
DESCRIPTION:Lake City's market switches from summer Thursday evenings to Saturday mornings in the fall\, and it keeps going until Dec. 19\, which makes it one of the few seasonal markets in North Seattle still open for holiday cooking. Look for it at NE 125th Street and 28th Avenue NE from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The scale is small and easygoing\, the kind of market where farmers have time to chat. SNAP users can pay with an EBT card directly at select farm stands and get up to $50 a month back on fruit and vegetables.

SUMMARY:Vancouver Farmers Market (Downtown)
DESCRIPTION:Vancouver's downtown market stays open through the winter\, shifting to a single Saturday session from 10 to 2 next to Esther Short Park. The cold-season lineup is smaller than summer's\, but you'll still find local growers\, bakers and makers\, plus a reason to grab coffee and loop the park. On Kids Bucks Saturdays (November 21 and December 19)\, children get a $2 coupon to spend on anything at the market\, a nice way to let them pick their own apple or treat.

SUMMARY:Portland Saturday Market
DESCRIPTION:Portland Saturday Market is in its 52nd season\, and the last Saturdays before it packs up on December 19 are prime gift-hunting weeks. Makers sell their own work from booths spread through Waterfront Park and Ankeny Plaza by the Burnside Bridge: ceramics\, jewelry\, leather\, woodwork\, prints and warm knits. Local musicians play sets on the market stage through the final Saturday\, and food vendors keep shoppers fed between laps. Entry is free; come early for the most relaxed browsing.

DESCRIPTION:Verdi's Requiem is one of the most dramatic pieces in the choral repertoire\, all thunderous brass and whispered prayers\, and the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra opens its November with it. The Portland Symphonic Choir joins the orchestra under Ken Selden for two performances at Skyview Concert Hall. It's a big\, emotional sing for early November and a chance to hear a full orchestra and chorus without crossing the river. Saturday is at 7 p.m.; Sunday is a 3 p.m. matinee.

SUMMARY:Hillsdale Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Southwest Portland's Sunday market\, now set up in the Rieke Elementary parking lot on SW Vermont\, runs every week until Thanksgiving before switching to a twice-a-month winter schedule. It draws a loyal crowd from Hillsdale\, Multnomah Village and the surrounding hills\, and the three Sundays before the holiday are the best chance to stock up while the full roster is still coming. Extra parking is available at the back entrance of Ida B. Wells High School next door.

SUMMARY:Ballard Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Seattle's first year-round neighborhood farmers market has filled the cobblestone stretch of Ballard Avenue NW every Sunday since 2000\, and the produce comes only from Washington farms. In winter the stalls lean toward storage crops\, meat\, eggs and baked goods\, with makers' tables mixed in\, and the market runs from NW Market Street down to 20th Avenue NW. Street meters are free on Sundays\, and the online vendor map is refreshed every Friday by 5 p.m. if you're after a particular farm. Rain doesn't cancel it\, so bring a hood and make a slow morning of the avenue's cafes afterward.

SUMMARY:West Seattle Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:In the heart of the Junction at California and Alaska\, West Seattle's market runs every Sunday morning through the winter\, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Think of it as a neighborhood shop more than a destination: farm produce\, meat\, eggs and bread\, with the Junction's coffee shops and bookstores a few steps away. Nov. 8 is Applelooza\, a tasting of Washington-grown apples that's a good excuse to learn a few new varieties. SNAP users can pay with an EBT card directly at select farm stands here\, and the C Line stops right at the corner.

SUMMARY:King Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:The King neighborhood's Sunday market closes for the year on November 22\, so its last three Sundays are a good reason to wander over before Thanksgiving. About 30 regional farmers and food makers set up in the lot beside King Elementary at NE 7th and Wygant\, between Alberta and Prescott. It's compact and walkable\, with a neighborhood crowd rather than a tourist one. SNAP shoppers can get up to $20 matched through Double Up Food Bucks.

SUMMARY:Lents International Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:Started in 2006 to bring fresh\, culturally relevant produce to one of Southeast Portland's most diverse neighborhoods\, the Lents market runs its final Sundays through November 22. Around a dozen growers and food makers set up in The ZED parking lot at SE 92nd and Reedway\, and the vendor mix changes week to week. Live music plays from 1 to 3 p.m.\, and kids can try food activities at the information booth. Small\, friendly and very much a neighborhood market.

SUMMARY:Fremont Sunday Market
DESCRIPTION:Fremont's European-style street market has run for more than 35 years\, and it doesn't take the winter off. From November on it moves under cover at the Fremont Bridge location\, which is heated\, with a second covered spot on 34th next to the market's own Sundays Coffee. Expect a mix of vintage and flea finds\, local artisans and a curbside row of food trucks that makes it a decent brunch plan. Ballard's farmers market is a two-minute drive west if you want to make a morning of both.

SUMMARY:Capitol Hill Farmers Market
DESCRIPTION:The Denny Way entrance to Capitol Hill Station opens straight onto this market\, which sets up on E Barbara Bailey Way between Broadway and 10th every Sunday of the year. Winter hours stay at 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.\, a late enough start for brunch first. Expect Washington farm produce\, meat and baked goods\, and on Nov. 15 the market hosts Applelooza\, a tasting of the wide range of apples grown around the state. Street parking is free on Sundays\, though it fills fast on the Hill.

SUMMARY:Garden Tea Tastings at Lan Su Chinese Garden
DESCRIPTION:A tea master from Lan Su's Yun Shui Teahouse pours three seasonal Chinese and Taiwanese teas for a group of no more than eight\, in one of the garden's pavilions. Over an hour you'll hear where each tea comes from\, how it's processed and brewed\, and what it means culturally\, then take home a porcelain teacup. Garden admission is included\, so plan to wander the courtyards afterward. It's a quiet\, grown-up way to spend a rainy winter afternoon in Old Town.

SUMMARY:Portland Opera: La Traviata
DESCRIPTION:Portland Opera opens its season's big stage with Verdi's La Traviata\, the story of Violetta\, a woman who chooses love and her own terms over polite society's verdict\, and pays for it. It's one of the most beloved operas ever written\, packed with tunes you'll recognize\, and an ideal first opera if you've been meaning to try one. Sung in Italian with English captions projected above the stage. Students get $15 seats by phone\, and Oregon Trail Card holders may qualify for $5 tickets.

SUMMARY:New Tech Seattle Monthly Meetup
DESCRIPTION:Seattle's biggest recurring tech meetup has gathered founders\, developers\, recruiters\, investors and the tech-curious every month since 2013. The format is friendly and fast: an hour of block-party-style networking with appetizers and a cash bar\, then a run of eight-minute presentations from local founders and community leaders\, each followed by a few minutes of questions. It meets at The Collective in South Lake Union\, and the conversation spills into the building's community space afterward. If you're new to town or new to the industry\, it's one of the easier rooms in Seattle to walk into alone.

SUMMARY:Capitol Hill Art Walk
DESCRIPTION:On the second Thursday of each month\, galleries\, boutiques\, bars and cafes across Capitol Hill hang new work and stay open late\, from about 5 to 8 p.m. It's looser and younger than the downtown walks: as likely to mean a photo show in a coffee shop or a pop-up in a vintage store as a white-walled gallery. Chophouse Row on 11th Avenue is a reliable anchor\, with its restaurants open and serving during the walk. Grab the online art map first\, then work your way along Pike\, Pine and 12th.
