| 2/10/2026 | POSITIVELY MI PORTLANDThe Big Picture A vibrant downtown is more than buildings and events—it’s the sense of connection, pride, and possibility we create together. By focusing on consistency, revitalization, and collaboration, we can continue building a downtown that reflects the energy and creativity of our entire community. Businesses, Organizations, Property Owners, Residents, General Public
ALL ARE WELCOME It’s a fresh, upbeat gathering for people who love our community, enjoy brainstorming, and are willing to share a little time and talent. Each month we’ll welcome a guest—voices from our schools, health care, city leadership, emergency services, or simply someone with something positive and meaningful to share. Expect a quick 10-minute presentation followed by a lively round-robin conversation. Sometimes we’ll bring topics that need community input; other times, you’ll bring the ideas to the table. Connection, collaboration, and fellowship are the goal—and we happily leave negativity at the door. This is HOW we do it! And you can be a part of making a lot of wonderful things happen by joining us.
This is WHEN we do it! on the 2nd Tuesday of each month at City Hall Upstairs 6:00 - 7:30pm. Become a regular and see how even more gets done. more info... |
