The Office of Arts & Culture puts arts at the center of public life for all Portlanders by supporting a diverse array of creative expressions. Working with City bureaus, Council offices, and community partners, Arts & Culture champions Portland's vibrant arts and culture ecosystem.
General Operating Support grantees strengthen the region’s cultural ecosystem and economy—bringing arts access to all Portlanders, from classes and community events to free concerts and theater camps.
This year, each of City's three arts grant partners will host a single, focused funding opportunity, with all funding calls set to close in Fall or Winter 2024.
