Portland Indigenous marketplace finds permanent home
Reported byICT News ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
Portland Indigenous Marketplace, founded in 2018 by Lluvia Merello to provide culturally centered vending opportunities for Indigenous artisans, has received an anonymous donation of a building at 737 Southeast Sandy Boulevard and is beginning renovations with a target opening date of 2028.
The organization is still fundraising to complete the full renovation; the opening date is a target, not confirmed.
