Fisher Poets Gathering
This Astoria event is one of the most entertaining events of the year. Fishermen and women from all around come to Astoria for 3 days to listen to poems, music and stories about fish, fishing and fishermen. And the other fun part is that they read in 3-5 different venues in town, so you can travel around and enjoy the town. For more information check out:
