Trillium Artisans

Trillium Artisans is a project of the Neighborhood Pride Team located in the outer southeast area of Portland, Oregon where the average household income is lower than the rest of the city and 63 percent more people live on public assistance.

Trillium Artisans works with low-income community members to develop, design, and market highly unique and individualized arts and crafts using reclaimed and recycled materials destined for landfills. The project is transforming the local economy by valuing the dignity of each artisan, paying a living wage, and caring for God's creation. Trillium Artisans is about people, planet, and profit.
