Land Acknowledgement
Land Acknowledgement
JSMA at PSU acknowledges that the lands on which Portland State University stands today are the historic homelands of several bands of Chinook-speaking people including many Multnomah, Clackamas, and Watlata/Cascade villages. There were also Kalapuya (Tualatin villages) nearby and the Molalla people in the Willamette Valley. Today their descendants are primarily members of the Grande Ronde and Siletz Confederated Tribes, with Chinook and other tribal relations at Warm Springs, Yakima, and the Chinook Nation. A number of Native American individuals and groups own land in Multnomah County on modern terms. Multnomah County is unceded Indian land and, in this sense, remains contestable space. In addition to the federally recognized tribes located primarily in the state of Oregon, we acknowledge the presence of numerous "unrecognized" tribes and indigenous groups.

Mission
The Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art at Portland State University (JSMA at PSU) aspires to create an environment that sparks creativity, shares perspectives, and stirs curiosity. By providing free access to rich, inclusive, and interdisciplinary programming, JSMA at PSU creates space for new audiences and seasoned supporters to engage with art and artists while re-imagining the potential for university museums.
History
Located in downtown Portland on the South Park Blocks, JSMA at PSU opened its 7,500-square-foot space in November 2019. An initial $5 million contribution by Jordan D. Schnitzer through the Jordan Schnitzer Family Foundation helped create the first art museum at PSU, which is one of the most vibrant and accessible urban universities in Oregon.
