Whether you are a school seeking team members, showcasing your organization, a Montessorian looking to learn, or a teacher seeking a new position, the Community Fair is a great place to gather and get inspired. We hope you’ll join us to reunite with old friends, meet potential employers, listen to Trainer talks, or wander our model classrooms.

This event is for everyone, individuals at any career stage can network and engage with the greater Montessori community. Prospective learners are also welcome to explore job opportunities and learn about AMI teacher programs!

Getting to MNW

We’re one block from Pioneer Square, a MAX train hub, surrounded by major bus lines, and near bike streets.If you’re driving, there are several paid parking garages nearby, including Star Park on the corner of SW Alder & SW 6th Ave. The City of Portland website has detailed information about area parking and on-street parking is also available, for limited durations.

Staff and volunteers will be in the Selling Building lobby to let folx in. If they have left momentarily, use the silver call box to the right of the building doors to let us know that you are here by pressing 049, then Call. We will answer and then unlock the door remotely. You will hear a buzzing sound and can pull a door open (while it buzzes). Upon entering, take the elevator to MNW (located on the 7th floor to the right as you exit).
