Vanport Mosaic invites you to a week of memory activism in Historic Old Town - one of the Portland's oldest and most culturally significant neighborhoods. This area has been deeply shaped by historic racism and cultural erasure, and we're coming together to celebrate its history and resilience.

Join us for a transformative week of reflection, celebration, and community building as we come together to honor the rich history and cultural legacy of Old Town.

Vanport Mosaic shines a national spotlight on Portland’s rich and complex history through COMING HOME: Memory Activism in Old Town, a week-long series of events dedicated to honoring and reconnecting communities with deep ties to Old Town. Known as one of the city's oldest and most culturally significant neighborhoods, Old Town has been profoundly shaped by historic racism and cultural erasure.
