Portland Street Art Alliance
Mission
Filling the void by empowering artists to activate the spaces where we live, work, learn, and play.
Bottom Line
Street art is the most democratic art form, open to anyone who passes by. Since 2012, PSAA has brought over 600 murals to nearly 80 Portland neighborhoods, created by about 280 regional artists who have earned $3.4 million for their work. We've also built lasting community connections, reaching close to 12,000 people, including over 4,200 K-12 students, through hands-on tours, workshops, and school activities.
Quote
"As an artist, I've found PSAA to be an invaluable resource. They do all the thankless legwork of connecting artists to opportunities within the community, help streamline the design process and make sure I have everything I need to focus on the fun part of making the actual art." - Kyler Martz, Muralist
