Oregon, and specifically Portland, has been known for its quirky attractions and events. These days, Oregon has become home to a number of local artists. According to the Oregonian and the National Endowment for the Arts, “There are more artists than ever before in the United States — about 2 million — and Oregon is one state where the number of artists has grown decisively, jumping from 15th nationally in 1990 to eighth in 2000. And that underscores the perception that Oregon, and specifically Portland, is one of the country’s more popular artist havens.”
