Fodor's Review:

The treasures at the Pacific Northwest's oldest visual- and media-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, which rotates and has more than 400 works of art from 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.

  • Cost: $10
  • Open: Tues., Wed., and Sat. 10-5, Thurs. and Fri. 10-8, Sun. noon-5.

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!
