Portland Design Month is more than a festival — it's an invitation to see our city with new eyes.

In the past, this event was limited to one week. This year, we’re excited to announce that it will run for a full month, featuring numerous events and workshops around the city by nonprofits, designers, students, companies, and you (our awesome attendees).
