Portland Art Museum
museum
As the West Coast's oldest art museum, this institution anchors its extensive regional collections with rotating modern work.
Description
The galleries prioritize the cultural record of the region, housing extensive collections of Native American and Pacific Northwest art. These permanent holdings contrast with a schedule of rotating contemporary exhibitions, keeping the museum’s floor plan in flux. As an institution, it balances its historical identity as the oldest art museum on the West Coast with a focus on modern creative output.
