The retirement of The Portland Upside

After printing our 12th issue in April, we have decided to stop publishing The Portland Upside. We spent time weighing various options (less-frequent publishing, online-only version, nonprofit status, etc.), and concluded that we are tired and are drawn to do something different.

Publishing the paper over the past year has been a fulfilling endeavor, one that we are happy to have achieved. The positive stories published in the Upside were read by thousands, brightening lives and highlighting Portland's goodness.

Thank you to each of you that helped create, support, promote and distribute the Upside. It was a shining success, and we could not have done it without you.
