The Zymoglyphic Museum — Attraction in Portland

If you’re in the area this is a … must visit. Jim is very friendly, welcomed us in and directed us upstairs.

The museum is all in a small car garage but still packs so much to see. It’s open the 2nd Sunday of every month.

Jim does a great job of sucking you into this world and mystery that envelopes it. I’m glad that so much is left for you to interpret and visualize on your own. There’s lots of labels for things that are worth the read that serve as a guide in this wondrous world.

We spent about 30 minutes and could have easily been there longer which says a lot about the usage of small space. Cool selection of gift shop items and no pressure to buy anything ! Did i mention it’s FREE admission ? this man could easily charge for this and is letting us into his world for free. Cool cool man.

Will definitely stop by again in some time to see any new additions and maybe buy...

The gentleman owner (and creator) of the museum was very welcoming and friendly. We had such interesting time in...

Oddities galore, a very unique museum! It is inside a small house on two floors, but I stayed in there for an hour because it was so different from any museum l've ever been to! Some of the displays made me cringe lol. See photo I posted of a skeleton with two heads in a glass dome from artist Kiyomi Hessling (craniopagus twins with a tail), it was my favorite at the museum!! There were other Mermaid carcasses by her, hair-raising... makes me wonder what goes through her mind when she is creating these pieces. I would definitely go back when I visit Washington again to see what new items will be displayed! Free to see! Should call to see what hours are, he’s...
