Thank you to all of the visitors who were able to view our last exhibition, ‘Feeling Documents: A Liberated Archives Experience’ at HOLDING Contemporary. We are so appreciative and in awe at the level of engagement that was cultivated in connection to our latest research-based installation. Please stay tuned as we plan and prepare for our next project in our Liberated Archives series.

We also want to thank all of the people who were able to make our annual Spring Break Out a wonderful week of virtual education. Presentations from the city of Portland Auditors, an archiving discussion with Zakiya Collier and an artist talk with Don’t Shoot Portland’s executive director Teressa Raiford can all be viewed on our YouTube page

To our GiveGuide donors that gave over a $25 donation, your t-shirts are on the way; thank you all so much for supporting us through this city-wide initiative! We are making these by hand with Umbrella Inkand will have shipping continuing through the end of April.

On April 16, 2022 will mark one year since Robert Delgado was shot and killed by Portland Police at Lents Park. Robert was houseless at the time, living in the Lents area, and experiencing a mental health crisis. 

Please join us at Lents Park (east side) for community healing through art and gathering days, as well as a memorial and vigil, in Robert’s honor:

Painting days: Fridays, April 1, 8, 15, 5-7 p.m.

Memorial and vigil: Saturday, April 16, 5 p.m.

Over the course of the next three Fridays, starting tonight, we will work together to create art in Robert’s honor, and we will unveil the finished art at the one-year memorial in Robert’s honor. 

Paint supplies and refreshments will be provided. These gatherings will be for all people, housed or unhoused, of all ages and abilities. Please share to help us spread the word!
