Rothko Pavilion Spurs Portland Art Museum Campus Transformation
9:30- Social Time – 10:00- Program
Oswego Heritage House
Avenue A and 10th Street, Lake Oswego



John Goodwin
is a community builder, art collector, and cultural innovator who has been the Director of Community Philanthropy at the Portland Art Museum since 2018.

Prior to this appointment, John was the Director of Premium Services for the Portland Trail Blazers. During his tenure there, he served on the Boards of the Art Museum and the Oregon Cultural Trust. A previous job was Director of Membership and Marketing at the University Club of Portland, so to say John is a people person is quite an understatement!

He earned a Bachelor’s degree in Journalism/Speech at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and received certificates for studies in History and Economics from the University of London.

The Portland Art Museum project is expected to play a key role in the rebirth of downtown with the transformation of its campus. As the only major art museum between Seattle and San Francisco, it has always been a civic cornerstone and an important educational resource for visitors, and it has existed for more than 130 years..

By the close of 2025, Goodwin speculates ”that everyone, whatever their walk of life ……their race …….or religion will also feel (as he does) that the Portland Art Museum is a beacon of hope.”
