A big shout out to the Oregon Historical Society (OHS) for their generous, two-year contribution totaling $30,000. While OFN receives grant funding through two other statewide partners, OHS is the first to provide unrestricted funding through a non-competitive process. This partnership commits OFN and OHS to various programmatic support, resource sharing, and cross-promotions. Watch for folklife articles by our staff and students in the Oregon Historical Quarterly.
You can now find the OHS logo among our sponsorship recognitions. Enjoy our joint projects like traveling exhibits or pubic programs in your local historical societies around the state.
We are so excited to see where this collaboration will take us into future, and grateful for the much-needed funding from our cultural partner, OHS. Please join us in celebrating the Oregon Historical Society and plan a visit to their facility next time you’re in Portland. Their event calendar is packed with exciting, educational opportunities, and with your annual OHS membership receive FREE UNLIMITED ADMISSION to all of their regular exhibits, discounts on special events and much, much more!
