An intimate look at Portland’s housing crisis through human stories — inviting empathy, clarity, and collective action for our neighbors.
About this Event

Dear Portland is an immersive exhibition framed as an intimate letter to a beloved city. It transforms abstract data on the housing crisis into real human stories, inviting visitors into a community space where empathy is cultivated, collective resolve is strengthened, and possibilities for action come into focus. Through story-driven installations, lived-experience portraits, and interactive data, the exhibition encourages visitors to reflect, connect, and imagine solutions alongside their neighbors.

The experience is self-guided and designed to be calm, accessible, and thoughtful. We estiamte that most visitors spend 30–50 minutes in the exhibition but please move at a pace that feels good to you.

Open Hours: Wednesday–Saturday, 12–5 PM
Dates: February 6 – April 9, 2026
Location: Stelo Arts, Old Town Portland
