{NICE TO SEE YOU}
Welcome to LetterPDX, Friend.
Since 2014, LetterPDX has hosted inclusive, free drawing meetups for an ever-growing group of handlettering artists. Our roots are in Portland, Oregon, with community across the globe.
In May 2024, we celebrated our community’s tenth anniversary and reflected on our shared experiences spanning a decade. Across the Portland metro area, we’ve sat down to draw together at:
- Maker spaces: Art Design Xchange (ADX), Magnetic North, Makerspace Sellwood, NW Marine Art Works, True North
- Creative agencies: Jolby, North, Owen Jones & Partners
- Art colleges: Pacific Northwest College of Art (PNCA)
- Galleries and museums: Nucleus Portland, The Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art at PSU
- Restaurants and bars: White Owl Social Club, Radio Room, Rontoms, Baerlic Brewing, Burnside Brewing, McMenamins Kennedy School, Laughing Planet
- Tech companies: Uncorked Studios, Vacasa
- Retailers: TOMS Shoes Portland, MUJI Portland
- Parks: Irving Park, Cathedral Park
- …and with The Belmont Goats
Events, organized by 10+ year LetterPDX community manager Lauren, can include anywhere between 12 to 80 people at a time, sometimes in multiple, simultaneous locations.
No matter where we meet or what activity we choose, we celebrate and foster creativity, joy and connections. All are welcome, now and always.
