✨ Happy Holiday Season from the Portland Center team! ✨

In the midst of the holiday season, we’re reminded how important it is to pause from the day-to-day, connect with one another, and find the fun as we create new memories together.
Last week our team took that to heart with an outing to Hour to Midnight Escape Room — followed by a happy hour at Eastburn where we shared our own holiday traditions and wrapped up our team playlist guessing game (everyone submitted three favorite songs anonymously). 🎶
Big congratulations to Nicole — our champion guesser who identified 17 out of 24 songs correctly! 🏆

We’re grateful for this community, and we hope the season brings you moments of joy, connection, and celebration. Remember to find the fun and create memories!
Cheers from all of us at the Portland Center! ❤️🎄

As October draws to a close, we’re reflecting on the incredible works that have filled our halls these past several weeks. The Art About Agriculture Competition and Touring Exhibition brought together student and professional artists whose work celebrates the beauty, science, and spirit of agriculture across Oregon and the Pacific Northwest.

From our opening reception in September to countless moments of conversation and inspiration, this exhibit has reminded us of the power of art to connect community, environment, and innovation.

Thank you to the artists, guests, and partners who made this exhibition possible — including OSU College of Agricultural Sciences, OSU College of Science, OSU College of Engineering, Pendleton Center for the Arts, and Clackamas Community College.
