The Portland Museum of Art has more than 19,000 objects in its collection, and over the last decade has taken deliberate steps to expand the narratives it can tell through its artworks. + collection is a rare opportunity to view a selection of the PMA’s most recent acquisitions while gaining insight into the very basis of building, maintaining, and stewarding a museum collection. On view from February 2 through April 28, 2024, + collection highlights the transparent and evolving nature of the PMA's Art for All mission and how it impacts its galleries, exhibitions, and the museum’s artistic program as a whole.

This exhibition is supported by The PMA Blueprint: Building a Landmark for the Future.
