Festival Program Here


Hosted by Alberta House new Artistic Director Vin Shambry and Creative Director Matthew Kerrigan

The Vanport Mosaic is honored to partner with our friends at the Alberta House (formerly known as Cerimon House) as they re-dedicate their beautiful building to the community with ties to the rich history of Albina/NE Portland.

Join us to celebrate their vision and creative genius, and help us raise money to breathe new life into this Historic building. They welcomed Vanport Mosaic in their home (yes! our new address is… theirs!), and they are opening the doors to the memory activists, dreamers, resistors, artists and story keepers who make Portland a better place for all.



Some of the many special reasons to attend:

  • a sneak preview of POORLANDIA

  • Latoya Lovely live painting

  • live music with PORTLAND JAZZ COLLECTIVE - youth band led by Davasate Phelps

  • inspiring words by Community Weaver CHISAO HATA
