OUR MISSION:

Design Week Portland is a week-long, city-wide series of programs exploring the process, craft, and practice of design across all disciplines. Our mission is to increase appreciation and awareness about design and its far-reaching effects on matters of cultural and social relevance, including community development, education systems, and the economy.

Portland has always been a bit different. And within the last decade or so, the rest of the world has taken notice. Forever pushing forward, our compact city continues to emerge as a dynamic center of creativity, composed of a vital community of designers and makers at its core. We create. We collaborate. We try new things. We grow. And so, to best reflect the culture here, Design Week Portland stitches together the events and happenings that will connect, educate, and inspire

Happy to announce the new website. See www.TeaWaterDesigns.com for details!

Tea Sommeliers Are The Hot New Thing In Food Pairing Which black tea goes best with blue cheese? It turns out there is an art to unlocking new flavors in your food by pairing it with tea. And a whole new breed of experts has risen up to spread the word.

A massive THANK YOU to everyone for joining last Thursday night to celebrate the THRESHOLD opening exhibition! Here are some pics for those that couldn't make it.

These specific people need to be personally thanked: Martinez and Binkley for their incredible artwork which continues to inspire me after many years. Javier Martinez and Esmeralda Padilla for joining us from San Francisco, what a treat! The exhibition will be up for 3 months. If you'd like to schedule a viewing, feel free to p.m. me.

Also, Weishampel and Plemmons, what amazing hosts you both are. BLANKEYE, thank you!

Thank you for the beverage donations, Smith Teamaker and Doctor Bird Elixirs, for the Love elixir. That beverage about saved my life!

A very special evening in the Portland timeline.
