Oregon Cultural Trust

“The Cultural Coalition of Washington County is funded by the Oregon Cultural Trust, whose mission is to lead Oregon in cultivating, growing and valuing culture as an integral part of communities. They do this by inspiring Oregonians to invest in a permanent fund that provides annual grants to cultural organizations. Widespread accessibility to and involvement with the arts, humanities and heritage helps mold the Oregon society in which we live. Investment here can provide a positive quality of living dividend.”

–Charles Walker
Chair, Joint Interim Task Force on Cultural Development

 

Since 2003, donations to the Cultural Trust have generated more than $27 million in grants to more than 1,000 arts, heritage, and humanities programs and 2,500 projects through the Cultural Coalitions that serve every county and federally recognized tribe in Oregon. 

By participating in the Trust tax credit, you are not just supporting the arts, heritage, and humanities programs that enrich our communities. You are also taking advantage of a unique opportunity to make a difference. These grants are 100% funded by Oregonians’ participation in the Oregon Cultural Trust Tax Credit. When a Trust donor gives first to any of Oregon’s 1,600+ Participating Cultural Nonprofits, they match that gift with a contribution to the Trust. Your participation directly benefits the libraries, historical societies, youth art programs, and preservation projects that are the heart of every community, showing your commitment to the cultural richness of Oregon.
