Spring 2016 - Old Portland Hardware & Architecture

April 13, 2016

Portland is a city saturated in history, a love for craftsmanship and a passion for finding purpose in the forgotten, bringing us to Old Portland Hardware & Architecture for our Spring 2016 Table for Ten. Oregon native and Old Portland Hardware’s founder, Bret, told a behind the scenes story of history, passion and purpose with our guests. 

Our furnishings were provided by Commonwealth Rentals and decorated with antique pieces carefully selected from the showroom floor of Old Portland Hardware. Park Kitchen graced our palates with locally sourced blackened steelhead, beet chicharrones and double chocolate tart, while Bridge Nine Candles lit up our night by sending our guests home with their sustainable, hand-­poured Portland Mist candle. 

We dined with chefs, illustrators, innovators and creatives with backgrounds in apparel, footwear, beverage and technology. Our evening was full of laughter and amazement as we shared stories of courage and achievement. Old Portland Hardware’s thoughtfully restored handmade items, like our Table For Ten friendships, were intentionally made to last. Thank you to all who made our night a success.
