#Repost @disjectapdx ・・・ We'd like to give a warm welcome to our new tenant, Carnation Contemporary! Carnation Contemporary was founded in 2018 by a collective of Portland-based artists who champion critical and contemporary artwork. They are a cooperative gallery supporting emerging and mid-career artists from Portland and the surrounding region. Their first exhibition, a group show titled "First Date", will be opening on September first. More details to come!
