Portland Art Museum Review

The treasures at the Pacific Northwest's oldest arts facility span 35 centuries of Asian, European, and American art. A high point is the Center for Native American Art, with regional and contemporary art from more than 200 tribes. The Jubitz Center for Modern and Contemporary Art contains six floors devoted entirely to modern art, with the changing selection chosen from more than 400 pieces in the museum's permanent collection. The film center presents the annual Portland International Film Festival in February and the Northwest Film Festival in early November. Also, take a moment to linger in the peaceful outdoor sculpture garden. Kids under 18 are admitted free.

    A Real Gem

    Portland's collection covers a wonderful range of art interests; check out their Asian collection or Pacific Northwest Artists, then wander through the Modern Art wing and discover Monet's Water Lilies, not to mention Picasso, Brancusi, Flavin, Judd, Frankenthaler, Lichtenstein - the list goes on and on.
    Not to be missed!
