Field Trip to Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art

The Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art at Portland State University has a new exhibition called Mapping Familiar Territories, Charting New Paths! This show brings together eleven contemporary artists who use map‑making as a creative lens to explore identity, migration, place, power, and climate change.

This exhibition highlights artists who reinterpret cartography to question who defines space, uncover overlooked histories, visualize environmental data, and challenge traditional boundaries.
