Special Art on Loan

Oregon Contemporary invites collectors to loan works to display for audiences to view for free during exhibition hours. The program presents works by recognized artists from around the world. We are grateful to collectors who support the mission of Oregon Contemporary and the public’s access to art.

Lenders may receive tax benefits for participating in this program and should consult a tax advisor to learn more. Additional support is always welcome.
