Portland Art Museum’s big change: Director heads to Dallas

Brian Ferriso, who’s spent nearly 20 years transforming the Portland Art Museum, is moving on to lead the Dallas Museum of Art—one of the largest in the country. Ferriso’s legacy in Portland includes expanding access, doubling curatorial staff, and raising over $140 million for a major museum expansion opening this November. Locals can look forward to nearly 100,000 square feet of new gallery space and more inclusive programming. With Ferriso’s move, what do you hope to see next for Portland’s art scene? And how might his vision shape Dallas’ future? Let’s talk about the impact of leadership on our cultural spaces. #Entertainment #Painting #PortlandArtMuseum
