Help me make The Longest Drawing in Portland Oregon 👀

On June 13th I’ll be hanging out at @fiskgallery and attempting to make a very long drawing, and I need your help! I will also be joined by my dear sweet friends @norkpen and @fromzab and we will be running a “photo” booth. Come find out what exactly that means and hang out for a few hours! It’s also a great opportunity to see Soft Connections.

⭐️ This is a free event and materials will be provided but please feel free to bring your favorite drawing utensils with you. I hope to see you there ⭐️

We recently welcomed our March cohort of artists to Caldera: Rowena Alegria, Lorena Diosdado, Eleanor Klock, Kache’ Mumford, and Victoria Xiao.

During their residency, the artists explored themes of memory, identity, belonging, and inheritance across writing, painting, ceramics, and mixed media.

Rowena continued work on a long-developing novel. Lorena painted imagery inspired by her culture and personal history onto old curtains from her home. Eleanor created comics centered on her dating experiences in Portland. Kache’ wrote poems for a debut collection rooted in sound and resistance. Victoria experimented with forms for a ceramic burial suit exploring landscape and memory.

Outside the studio, the group shared meals, watched films, and spent time on the land. What begins here continues beyond Caldera.
