The Rotating Art Program at Portland International Airport provides a portal into the dynamic cultural life of our region.
Through ongoing relationships with professional regional artists, arts organizations, art museums, and galleries, the PDX Art Program provides a showcase for artwork that reflects the values of the Port of Portland and the region we serve.
Rotating Exhibitions: Post-security within the PDX terminal, there are currently five exhibition areas featuring artwork by professional regional artists (living and working in Oregon and Washington State). These temporary exhibits rotate bi-annually and are located post-security within Concourse D, Concourse E, and the Concourse B/C Connector.
Additional pre-security exhibition locations include:
International Exhibitions in Baggage Claim: This exhibit space features 2D artworks and projects from international or regional artists working on international themes. It is located pre-security near the international arrivals waiting area in North Baggage Claim.
North and South Pedestrian Tunnels: These exhibit spaces feature 2D exhibitions of regional cultural special interest. The exhibits are located on the north wall of the South Pedestrian Tunnel and the south wall of the North Pedestrian Tunnel leading from PDX’s parking structure towards the escalators to and from Baggage Claim.
