Each week at this time we take a look at just a few of the possible things you might do on the weekend. Last month we talked about the offerings of Portland's well-known First Thursday Art Walk. This time, we're focusing on a decidedly lesser known annual art show featuring the work of high school students around the Northwest. Director Doug Campbell says the show does two big things: it provides students in Oregon, Washington and Idaho with an incredible opportunity to showcase their art and boost their resumes for college applications; and it gives local art lovers a chance to see some great paintings, sculptures, photos and other art for free.

What are you up to this weekend?
