Bathtub Art Museum

by Alyson Stanfield on October 18, 2006

Tomorrow I leave for Washington state and my artist self-promotion workshop in Winthrop. Here at the last minute, I’m Googling stuff to make sure I don’t miss anything along the way (I’m going to miss most everything, but I can at least try). Anyhow, I came across the Bathtub Art Museum, which is nowhere near where I’ll be. It mostly exists online, but there is a collection in Portland, OR–mostly postcards dating back to 1900. Just proves that you can make a museum (and I use that term loosely here since there’s no physical space) out of any kind of art.

Lest it sound like I’m not crazy about the idea, you’re wrong. I just wish Portland were closer to where I’ll be going. I’d definitely make an appointment to see 300 images of bathtub art!

Thanks for the blog about my museum! it came up in a recent search. You are welcome anytime – but believe it or not, no one in the three + years I’ve been doing the museum has ever asked to make an appointment. Currently I try to always have at lease one exhibit in a public place in Portland. Carye Bye
