Come connect with PNCA’s merging artists at the 2026 Summer MFA Open Studios during Portland Arts Week. In celebration of Portland Arts Week, Pacific Northwest College of Art (PNCA) invites you to join an afternoon of art, conversation, and creative exploration at Open Studios. Open Studios brings together a dynamic group of emerging artists whose practices span disciplines, media, and ideas. Start off by exploring the Thesis Exhibition on view in PNCA’s galleries, then step inside the artists’ studios to meet the artists and experience the spaces where their work takes shape.

Grounded in experimentation, critical inquiry, and creative risk-taking, these artists are producing work that challenges conventions, expands perspectives, and imagines new ways of seeing and connecting. Their practices reflect the evolving landscape of contemporary art and the conversations shaping its future. Meet the artists, engage with their work firsthand, and gain a behind-the-scenes look at works in progress. The LRVS MFA students welcome the community into their creative spaces and invite dialogue about their artistic processes, research, and projects.

This event is free and open to the public. All are welcome.
