GRANT SUPPORTED PROJECTS

ON OCCASION, PSAA has had the opportunity to launch mural projects OURSELVES THAT WE WANT TO SEE HAPPEN, thanks to FOUNDATION support from local, statewide and regional granting organizations

What Keep us Together by Oliver Casillas | Oregon Community Foundation Grant, 2020

These grant partners provide PSAA the critical financial support needed to initiate big ideas, stretch ourselves, and grow as an arts organization. Many of these mural projects are aimed specifically at supporting under-represented artists and communities in-need.
