WE LIVE FOR MAGIC

We live for the lights, the music, the food, the learning, the inspiration, and the togetherness. We live for positive change and transformative experiences that blaze a path toward endless possibilities. The awesome potential of every event keeps us on our toes and, sometimes, knee-deep in caffeine. But the magic of pulling it all off? Totally worth it.

Oregon Convention Center project proceeding

By Sam Tenney, DJC Oregon

A major project to upgrade the Oregon Convention Center is under way and on pace for completion at the end of this year to coincide with the opening of the 600-room Hyatt Regency hotel one block to the north.

The $39 million renovation will modernize public areas of the 30-year-old structure, providing an enhanced guest experience while establishing better connections to entries and improving wayfinding for hotel guests and transit users disembarking from the adjacent MAX platform.

Oregon Convention Center and pacificwild Catering are pleased to introduce pastry chef Becky Holmes

Born in Swansea, Wales and raised in Dunchurch, England, Chef Becky Holmes began baking with her grandmother before she could even reach the kitchen counter. She would help pick rhubarb and gooseberries from the garden, and was sent to collect eggs from the chicken coop each morning, before dragging over a dining room chair to help make a crumble, scones, or tea cakes.
