Portland Art Museum

As one of the 25 largest Museums in the United States, the Portland Art Museum (PAM) deserves to be visited by many travelers to keep them amazed of the numerous art collections from American, European, Asian, Native American and contemporary art pieces. At present, PAM has over 40,000 masterpieces for you to enjoy, which includes the works of George Inness and Albert Bierstadt with their art pieces named Castel Gandolfo and Mount Hood respectively.

For those who wanted to have a basic knowledge in art, they can have it here at the Portland Art Museum because as part of their community program, they offers art classes for children, families, teens, and adults. One can simply visit on their event calendar for details of art classes' schedules.

Aside from the beautiful art pieces, the Portland Art Museum is also catering wedding receptions, and is hosting meetings and events using their fully functional event space venues available for rental. Holding your event in places like the PAM will surely make it an event to remember for your participants because they will not only enjoy the event itself, but also they will get the chance to view PAM's prestigious art gallery.

The museum's collection is continuously growing from its first acquisition in 1895, and the recent acquisitions include Paul Gauguin's 1884 Vue d'un jardin, Rouen (Garden View, Rouen), a stone stele of Ganesha, The Ox-Cart (Charrette de boeuf) by Vincent van Gogh, Colescott Painting, and the Patrician Barnacle by Robert Rauschenberg. These great art collections are a reason enough to make your Portland Oregon travel a memorable and fruitful one.

PAM also offers a different artistic experience to all of their patrons like quick and easy access to the museum as often as they like once they become a member.

The Meuseum is open Tuesdays to Sunday at 10 in the morning and closes at 5 in the afternoon. The Museum is also close on Holidays.
