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.

WE GET IT DONE

Last minute request? Done. Idea about how to do something better? Done. Guest who wants something we’ve never heard of—now, if possible? Done. And done. YES is the answer. Determination, creativity and teamwork are how we deliver on it.

Oregon Convention Center art installation sounds the significance of three sister city relationships

One of the most striking pieces of the Oregon Convention Center’s public art collection will be reinvigorated soon, as the 28-year-old “Bell Circles II” art piece will be updated to span the footprint of the entire convention center.

The Robert Coburn installation, which memorializes the relationship between Portland and three of its Asian sister cities, will greet visitors from the north as well as south once the Japanese bell is located at the southeast corner of the center, near the intersection of Martin Luther King Jr. and Lloyd boulevards.
