Come join Don’t Shoot Portland for an open house at our newest office location, the Black Memory & Preservation Lab! This vision has been years in the making and we are truly grateful to have a dedicated location for our archival digitizing work as well as our collection of arts and literature. 

Saturday, October 4  from 11am to 2pm
Black Memory & Preservation Lab inside of the Center for Social Justice | 510 SW Third Avenue

FREE RSVP via Eventbrite

We are inviting our community to immerse themselves in Black literature, art and knowledge passed down by generations of storytellers, activists and intellectuals. Our library collection is also home to books highlighting the resistance of oppressed peoples throughout the world, not only within the Black Diaspora - serving as a constant reminder of our shared struggles and solidarity.

Vintage titles, limited editions and even rare vinyl records will be on display for you to read and listen to. Our library is open to all and light refreshments will be provided - we hope to have you join us for this special occasion!
