The Portland Art Museum unveils its major expansion and renovation to the public on November 20, 2025, with four days of free admission and activities<\/a>. Tickets to the four-day celebration, November 20 \u2013 23, are available for reservation beginning November 1, and day-of tickets will also be available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Thursday, November 20, the transformed Museum<\/a> will officially open with a ribbon ceremony at noon, marking the opening of the new Mark Rothko Pavilion and a new era for art and community in Portland. The Museum will be open free to the public from noon to 5 p.m. on opening day, plus a free after-hours celebration 5 to 9 p.m. packed with food, music, and art inspiration. The celebration continues Friday through Sunday, November 21 \u2013 23, with free admission 10 a.m. \u2013 5 p.m. and a range of activities throughout the day, including art making, DJ music, food trucks, curator conversations, educator-led programs, and happy hour at the Museum\u2019s new cafe, Coquelico by Providore Fine Foods.  Free admission to the Portland Art Museum\u2019s grand opening days is generously supported by Art Bridges Foundation\u2019s Access for All program, which also provides support for the Museum\u2019s monthly Free First Thursdays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anchored by the new, nearly 22,000-square-foot Mark Rothko Pavilion, which provides a new transparent, welcoming \u201cfront door\u201d and connects the two campus buildings, the expansion project is one of the most significant capital investments in the arts in the history of Oregon. It adds nearly 100,000 square feet of new or upgraded public and gallery space, providing increased access to exhibitions and programs, updated amenities that address the needs of more diverse audiences, and new ways to experience the Museum\u2019s robust collection. The galleries feature a complete reinstallation of the Museum\u2019s wide-ranging collection, highlighting nearly 300 major new acquisitions including works by Marie Watt, Simone Leigh, Ugo Rondinone, Pedro Reyes, Hiroshi Sugimoto, Jeffrey Gibson, and Carrie Mae Weems, alongside works that are rarely or have never before been on view, revealing perspectives that emphasize key themes of place, community, and identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visitors will experience a new approach to the collection, shifting from traditional chronological presentations to thematic displays that speak to the interests of Oregon audiences, tell little-known stories, and foster dialogue about the ideas shaping our lives. Several galleries also draw throughlines across the collection that allow discoveries of unexpected connections between works on view. Two special exhibitions, previously opened this fall, will also be on view: Yoshida Chizuko<\/em><\/a> and Global Icons, Local Spotlight: Contemporary Art from the Collections of Jordan D. Schnitzer<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
