After four years of stewardship by the Regional Arts & Culture Council (RACC), Arts for All will transition to Arts for All PDX, a new community organization led in part by one of the program’s original founders, Pat Zagelow, Executive Director of Friends of Chamber Music.
A bit of background
Arts for All began in 2011 as a volunteer coalition of arts organizations working together to advance equity and inclusion by offering $5 tickets to SNAP/EBT cardholders.
In 2022, RACC was honored to steward the program, helping sustain and grow it during a period of transition. Over the past four years, we’ve had the privilege of working alongside an incredible network of participating organizations to expand access to arts and culture across our region.
As the program continues to evolve, we’re excited to see Arts for All return to a community-led model. Beginning this fall, Arts for All PDX will carry the program forward, empowering the organizations it serves to guide its next chapter with renewed energy, outreach, and community engagement.
On Wednesday, August 19, the transition to Arts for All PDX will be completed. On this day, the RACC-hosted Arts for All webpage https://racc.org/artsforall/ will begin redirecting visitors to the new Arts for All PDX website at www.arts4allpdx.org.
Going forward, please contact info@artsforallpdx.org with any questions you may have.
We deeply appreciate your participation over the years and are excited to see what this new era of Arts for All PDX will bring for our community.
With gratitude,
Regional Arts & Culture Council Team
