CORPORATE PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES 2025

As Portland grows and changes, the work of the Architectural Heritage Center ensures we don’t lose what connects people and place, the past and the future. Our programs—digital projects, talks, walking tours, exhibitions, and advocacy—serve the metro area and explore how architecture intersects with broad-ranging issues like art and design; housing and affordability; the environment and sustainability; and social equity.

We can’t do it without you. With your and your business’ support it will be possible to educate, inspire, savor and preserve the historic resources of our communities. Working together we get the best of the new and the best of the old.

Join us as a sponsor of one or more of our programs.

  • Your customers and your employees will love you - more.

  • Your company will shine before a targeted audience in a variety of modes.

  • You will get tangible and intangible assets - such as marketing/PR content that will be good for your bottom-line.
