Ladies and gentlemen, please take your seats!  

Our show is about TO BEGIN! Support a vibrant arts community by naming a seat in the new Patricia Valian Reser Center for the Creative Arts (PCCA). With each gift of $2,500, you may name one seat.

The PCCA will bring together music, theater, digital communications and the visual arts to create a campus and community centerpiece. This complex will serve as a statewide portal to the arts, enabling collaboration with public school systems throughout the state to ensure that all Oregonians have better access and exposure to the arts.  

With your support, it will become, and remain, a gateway for culture and creativity for all.  

The Lynne Hallstrom Detrick Concert Hall in the Patricia Valian Reser Center for the Creative Arts will be an exceptional venue, an inspiring classroom and a community gathering place. Thanks to the hall’s superior acoustics, every seat will provide an optimal experience for our patrons.  

Now, you can make your mark on the future or celebrate someone special with an engraved plaque on one or more of these seats. 

President Emeritus Ed Ray has pledged a $50,000 challenge match to the seat campaign: Each time 40 seats are named, he will make a gift of $10,000 to the effort!
