Thinking back on the very first Design Week and our little project Put A Bird In It. We named it that to poke fun at Portlandia. Designers and artists are much smarter than just putting birds on things, and these bird houses really showcased that. Put A Bird In It had a five year run, and raised about $50k, and each year we had 100 birdhouses submitted. Since then we’ve done a Pin Show and now this year a Lettering Show to celebrate @designweekpdx We can’t thank the community enough for their support in helping us raise money for arts education. We hope to see you out at an event next week! To see more birdhouses check out our Flickr via our site.
