If you’re like me, daylight savings can be a tough time of year. All of a sudden it’s dark by the time I’m headed home for the evening. Fortunately, I work in a place that’s filled to the brim with art, so I’m surrounded by beautiful colors that seem to radiate light. But I realize we’re not all so lucky. For those of you who can’t pop in for a dose of color, I hope this post will tide you over.

The Rental Sales Gallery, Portland Art Museum recognizes and honors the Indigenous peoples of this region on whose ancestral lands the museum now stands.

These include the Willamette Tumwater, Clackamas, Kathlemet, Molalla, Multnomah and Watlala Chinook Peoples and the Tualatin Kalapuya who today are part of the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, and many other Native communities who made their homes along the Columbia River.

We also want to recognize that Portland today is a community of many diverse Native peoples who continue to live and work here. We respectfully acknowledge and honor all Indigenous communities - past, present, future - and are grateful for their ongoing and vibrant presence.
