"Work for Art" is a program of the Regional Arts & Culture Council
that develops and manages workplace giving campaigns for more than 75 local
arts organizations that are working every day to bring music, dance, theatre,
film, visual arts, literary arts, and folk arts into our neighborhoods, schools,
and community centers. A community rich with arts and culture attracts families,
companies, and tourists who in turn create more energy and financial support
for schools and vital services.
A full 100% of your donation will be granted to local arts organizations. The
City of Portland and other funding partners are matching up to $243,000 in
gifts to Work for Art through June 30, 2008.
You will receive written confirmation that your gift to Work for Art is a
tax-deductible charitable contribution on your state and federal returns.
Work for Art. Because funding the arts is everyone’s business.
