Thursday, November 20 — Grand Opening Day
Join us for our ribbon ceremony at 12 p.m. and get early access to the museum galleries as part of the event. Tickets for general admission begin at 1 p.m. The event includes remarks by civic and Museum leaders, a custom ribbon created by Portland Garment Factory, and live entertainment. The ceremony launches four days of free admission, inviting everyone to explore the transformed Museum.
Visitors enjoy free admission from 12 noon to 9 p.m. with access to newly installed galleries and recent acquisitions. From 5 to 9 p.m., the celebration continues with Museum Open Late, a free after-hours celebration featuring DJs, pop-up performances by local arts partners, and plenty of creative spirit, with food and drinks available for purchase. Guests are encouraged to dress inspired by their favorite artist or artwork—or simply come as they are.
