Weirdos Unite!
Our Mission: 'Keep Portland Weird'
Weird Portland United (WPU) is a 501(c)3 that discovers, promotes, and nurtures the creators and risk-takers that Keep Portland Weird. In the face of rapid change, we protect and lead Portland’s culture so that all Portlanders, from natives to newcomers, can contribute to our city’s now-famous culture of weird. By bringing those together who similarly dream of a weirder tomorrow, we find Portland voices that otherwise may have gone tragically unheard.
WPU relies on private donations, sponsorships, memberships, and public and private grants. The cultural, economic, and artistic portraits of Portland were painted from vibrant, colorful palettes. It is a past that we are proud of, and one we seek to sustain. We hope you will join us in honoring and reclaiming Portland’s weird past while we encourage an even weirder future.
