Ways to Give

We all experience the power of craft.

Call Stephanie Wottreng at 503.821.8887 or email swottreng@museumofcontemporarycraft.org.

From your favorite ceramic mug, to your grandmother’s handmade quilt you pull out on chilly nights; from the hand carved eaves on a classic Portland home to an antique ring – craft and design are a part of everyday life. These objects – old and new, special and everyday – add color, history, memories and richness to our lives.

The Museum of Contemporary Craft has been Portland’s home for the exploration, study and celebration of contemporary craft since 1937. Internationally acclaimed for excellence in exhibitions and public programming, the Museum of Contemporary Craft is a vibrant center for investigation and dialogue, expanding the definition and exploration of craft. Through exhibitions and a rich array of lectures and events open to the public, we enliven the museum experience for all.

In 2007, when we opened the doors to our dynamic new museum space in the Pearl District, Portland’s most active arts neighborhood, we reached more than 75,000 visitors, building critical mass to the city’s urban core.
