PDX Sidewalk Joy Map

The PDX Sidewalk Joy Map, created by PDX FLAG and PDX Dinorama, showcases the group of curated galleries, exchanges, and displays in Portland, Oregon.

Installed in curb gardens, front yards or sides of buildings these projects were created to bring a bit of whimsy and inspiration to the community.

These are all free to enjoy except Super Awesome Prizes runs on quarters and the Poetry Pottery Box has a suggested donation. Read more about the origins of the project and check out the Worldwide Sidewalk Joy Map!
