Portland Chinatown Museum
127 NW 3rd Ave 127 NW Third Avenue, Portland, OR 97209
The Portland Chinatown Museum is Oregon's first museum about Chinese American history, art and culture. Portland's Chinatown is a powerful site of historical memory, its buildings harboring and evoking stories of Portland's first truly multicultural neighborhood stretching back to the city's beginnings. The role and influence of the Chinese is one of Oregon's hidden stories. Despite anti-Chinese legislation and racial discrimination, Chinese merchants and workers were the earliest and largest non-European immigrant group to settle and to build in Oregon. By 1900 Portland's Chinatown ranked as the second largest Chinatown in America. Our Museum provides a new cultural attraction while contributing to the preservation and revitalization of Old Town Chinatown during a time of rapid transformation. We are proud to share this history.
