Welcome to the Portland Grub
The Portland Grub was born from the same creative energy that built Make Art — rooted in the local stories we all share. It transforms neighborhood folklore into art, drawing from the collective language of the wild and familiar: packs, murders, grumblers, routs, and a pounce — small ecosystems turned into pottery, felting, and objects that carry humor, edge, and community spirit.

My Approach
What began as a passion project has evolved into something more. We’re proud of where we’ve been and even more excited for what’s ahead. What sets us apart isn’t just our process—it’s the intention behind it. We take time to understand, explore, and create with purpose at every turn.
Simple ideas
Through every step, we've focused on staying true to our values and making space for thoughtful, lasting work.
Lasting impact
We build with clarity, act with integrity, and always stay curious.
