CREATIVITY THROUGH CONNECTION

Since 2011, the Art Design Xchange has been a hub for Portland creatives. We offer a range of opportunities to get involved and leave your mark.

At ADX, artists, designers, makers, builders, thinkers, and innovators come together to create, connect, and collaborate. We call this creative Xchange, and it is fundamental to everything we do.

​​Xchange is the networking, swapping and sharing of all things creative. It is creation, collaboration, and connection between creative people to build community. From tools, materials, and resources to ideas, knowledge and skills, to space, time, and yes, vibes, ADX is here to empower creative Xchange for everyone who wants to participate.

We welcome everyone, and members at our makerspace include graphic designers, CNC operators, screen printers, woodworkers, photographers, sculptors, poets, painters, musicians, writers, soap makers, jewelry makers, furniture makers, welders, product designers and more.

We can’t wait for you to join our community!
