Featured Artist & Curator: Alexis Neumann
This year, we’re featuring the work of local artist and disability activist Alexis Neumann for the whole month of May at Sisters Coffee in Portland’s Pearl district. The installation highlights and brings light to the differences in how we all think.
You can view this installation for free anytime during the month of May by going to Sisters Coffee. Enjoy your coffee or a pastry while making a positive impact on over 5,000 women accessing Cascadia’s mental health outpatient services each year.
