We are the staff of the PMA!

The PMA is committed to being an open, accessible, inclusive, and welcoming museum for all. We believe that art is transformative and support the PMA’s mission of Art for All. We know that these goals are not achievable without the staff.

Unionization will make the PMA a stronger, more equitable place for all staff and by extension our communities. With our union, we can work to extend PMA’s stated commitments to social justice and equity to our workplace. By standing together, we are stronger, and better positioned to negotiate for changes that prioritize issues that matter most to us.

We love the arts, this museum, and our communities in and outside of Portland.  We are organizing for a seat at the table to ensure that our collective voices are heard. Together we can build a stronger, democratic, and sustainable PMA.

Our strength is in our solidarity.
