CULTURAL AND HERITAGE ORGANIZATIONS ENCOURAGED TO APPLY FOR FUNDS

November 21, 2022 10:10 a.m. 

The Oregon State Capitol History Gateway is launching a second round of funding to help cultural and heritage museums and organizations produce an exhibit for display at the Oregon State Capitol.

The Capitol displays exhibits from entities throughout the state. CHG exhibits are increasingly focused on telling Oregon history and stories about Oregonians that are interwoven with democracy or government. The Oregon State Capitol Foundation helps fund this and other CHG programs.

With this historic portion of the building closed for construction, applicants must produce a virtual version of their exhibit for use on the Capitol’s website and then display a physical exhibit once the entire building reopens in 2025.

Details about the funding opportunity and an application can be found at: https://oregoncapitolfoundation.org/project/capitol-history-gateway/ or by calling 503-986-1392.  The deadline to apply is January 31st, 2023.
