Amazing transformation of a backyard patio space by @gatsptv recently in Camas, WA. Now it’s ready for a summer party! Always happy to help commission private murals like this, big or small. Hit us up! @gatsptv #gatsptv #gats #supportworkingartists #psaaprojects #portlandstreetartalliance

Absolutely groundbreaking 3D chalk art by @naomihaverland happened last week for @golloydpdx Sidewalk Chalk Art Festival! We’re so excited to connect with this new artist who really makes these wild interactive effects happen. It takes a lot of geometry, space, knee pads, and patience! #naomihaverland #gollyodpdx #psaacommissions #pdxstreetart #portlandstreetart #pdxart #3dchalkart #chalkart #chalkartfestival #portlandoregon #portlandstreetartalliance

Being on the news is stressful. You really never know how the story will be presented or what clips will make the cut. We’ve done at least half a dozen now and this piece by @kgwnews was the best yet! They worked with our schedules, stayed for several hours talking to artists and passerbys, captured interesting angles, and did an excellent job editing the segment in just a few hours. Thank you so much for helping us share and document this community art project. And most of all, thank you to all of the artists who have painting at Sunshine Dairy over the past few months, transforming it into this epic public art landmark. Thrilled that we could write this chapter of Portland history together. 👊🏼 #pdxart #portlandoregon #portlandmurals #pdxgraffiti #portlandgraffiti #pdxmurals #pdxstreetart #portlandstreetart #psaa #communityartproject #communityprogramming #portlandstreetartalliance @pbr_art @sizzlepie @millerpaint @oregonmetro

Yesterday, PSAA hosted a tour of Taylor Electric and a live painting tutorial by a local graffiti artist for Catlin Gabel’s Urban Studies PLACE Program and World Oregon’s Iraqi Young Leaders Exchange Program. These young adults had such amazing and inquisitive questions about how art and graffiti can be used for activism, the politics of public space, and the rights of working artists. Moments like these make all the drama and stress of managing public art projects melt away for a moment, and all you can do is smile. The next generation of leaders are strong, insightful, and ready to carry the torch forward. Special thanks to @jdubs_designs for providing an excellent history of graffiti art and painting demo! And to @killian.pacific for letting us use Taylor Electric for arts education events like this. #artseducation #psaatours #paintingtutorials #portlandstreetart #pdxart #portlandoregon #pdxstreetart #pdxschools #worldoregon #ruraloregon #exchangeprograms @catlingabel @wlyouth

@nobonzo #NOBonzo #BreadandRosesMural | The doorway mural by Portland-based artist N.O. Bonzo on PSAA’s newest community art wall is a homage to Rose Schneiderman the Polish-American feminist and one of the labor union leaders who led the 1912 labour worker strike. With her activism, Rose drew attention to unsafe workplace conditions following the tragedy of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory and was one of the founding members of the American Civil Liberties Union. Rose is credited with coining the phrase "Bread & Roses," to indicate workers’ rights to something higher than subsistence living. For nearly half a century, Rose worked to improve basic human rights including living wages, decent hours, and safe working conditions for women – the symbolic “bread.” She also tirelessly worked for “roses” such as schools, recreational facilities, and professional networks for trade union women, believing working women deserved more than meager subsistence. 🌹✊🏼🌹| #RoseSchneiderman #workersrights #laborunion #womensrights #workingclasshistory #portlandstreetart #pdxstreetart #pdxart #radicalart #pdxmurals #portlandmurals #rosequarterpdx #portlandoregon #psaa #portlandstreetartalliance #communityartproject | Paint Sponsorship from @oregonmetro @millerpaint
