Pioneers of Portland Punk 1977-1984: Collins Gallery
No one in town knew what the rules really were -- until punks broke them all!
Portland was the birthplace of bands like The Wipers, Neo Boys, The Rat$, Poison Idea, and so many more. Experience Portland's DIY punk music scene (1977-1984) through photos, artifacts, memorabilia, original artwork, flyers, zines . . . and whatever else we dug out of our attics.
