Underwrite Portland's Artists at
TEDxPortland- and Across the City.
I SEE PDX has been invited to exhibit at TEDxPortland — Homecoming, returning to the Armory where the event first began. We're commissioning original poster artwork by local artists — each one a portal into the stories of Portland's doers.

Goes to Artist Production
Portland’s artists deserve more than visibility.
They deserve compensation.
This spring, I SEE PDX is curating original posters by Portland artists - installed at TEDxPortland: Homecoming at the Armory, in storefront windows, on billboards, and in a permanent online gallery.
Every artist selected will be paid.
The scale of the exhibition and its citywide reach reflects the level of community sponsorship.
