The Patricia Reser Center for the Arts has been awarded an Oregon Community Foundation matching grant of $250,000. This gift will support construction of the first performing arts center of its kind to be built in the Portland metro area in more than 30 years. The grant is valid for gifts of $25,000 or greater made by Washington County donors, and the first $25,000 of each individual gift will be matched dollar for dollar.
“The Oregon Community Foundation is excited to be part of the community giving toward the Patricia Reser Center for the Arts,” says Kirby Dyess, OCF board chair. “The center will not only provide a place to celebrate the arts, but a versatile place to meet for the vibrant Washington County community.”
