Our Mission
At the heart of our work is the creative community—artists working across mediums, makers, actors, singers, writers, and anyone contributing to the cultural vitality of the places and spaces we live, work, and play.
We support creatives and cultural organizations by providing a path to opportunities and experiences that reach current and future arts enthusiasts and supporters.
We are a strong voice of Clackamas County’s arts and culture community, ensuring representation in local and regional conversations about the future of Oregon's arts.
We build bridges between arts and culture, local businesses and governments as they develop mutually beneficial partnerships and collaborate to promote a vibrant economy for Clackamas County.
