ANNOUNCING AiO’s SUMMER FUNDRAISER
We all are witnessing the withdrawal of funding across all sectors, the slashing of budgets and the pairing down to bare bones that strip our communities, and the larger society, of what makes our nation and our states and our towns vibrant and flourishing and connected and whole.
Now, more than ever, we need your help.
Donate to support Oregon artists now and into the future.
Art in Oregon works to build and sustain art patronage through pride and respect for Oregon artists. We aim to establish collaborative relationships to increase visibility and access to art for all people. We are specifically interested in uplifting and centering the voices of Black, Indigenous, and other underrepresented artists into a wider cultural dialogue.
Land Acknowledgement
Art in Oregon acknowledges the land on which we gather as the occupied and unceded territories of the Multnomah, Wasco, Colwlitz, Molalla, Kalpuya, Kathlamet, Clackamas, Chinook, Tualatin and many other tribes who made their homes in and around present-day Portland and along the Columbia River.
We acknowledge the systemic policies of genocide, relocation, and assimilation that still affect many Indigenous and Native American families today.
As guests on these lands, we respect the work of indigenous leaders and families. We pledge to make ongoing efforts to recognize their knowledge, creativity, and resiliency.
