    October 3-24, 2025

    As a city, we’re continually redefining ourselves, and that’s what makes us great. We’re proud of our quirks, our shadows, and our charm — so let’s celebrate them! Join us every October for Portland Design Month, where we’ll explore all that is wonderful and weird about the Portland (and beyond!) creative community.

  • 2025 AIGA DESIGN CONFERENCE

From intriguing mainstage presenters to in-depth symposia that allow attendees to dive deeper into topics facing our industry, we entice the community to imagine the future.
