Proclaimed one of the most authentic Japanese gardens outside of Japan, the Portland Japanese Garden is a 5.5-acre haven of tranquil beauty nestled in the scenic west hills of Portland, Oregon. The Japanese Garden Society of Oregon was formed in the early 1960s by Portland citizens interested in promoting a more intimate relationship between the peoples of Japan and our city and state. The Japanese Garden Society of Oregon works to create, maintain, improve, and administer an authentic, world-class Japanese garden in the city of Portland and to offer compatible educational, cultural, artistic, horticultural, environmental, and charitable activities.
The Behind-the-Scenes event will feature an inspiring wine and hors d'oeuvres reception in the Garden with Director Steve Bloom and Curator Diane Durston. Enjoy a free private tour of the Japanese Garden during the annual Art in the Garden series, which showcases the Portland Japanese Garden as a natural setting for the display of world-class art inspired by Japan.
