Sponsoring the Portland Winter Light Festival enables us to create a world-class light festival that energizes Portland in the winter. Light festivals have proven to be cultural and economic catalysts for host cities. In its eighth year, the Portland Winter Light Festival experienced remarkable growth, attracting 274,000 attendees in 2024.

The festival spans two weekends in February, featuring pop-up art across Portland with focal points in the central city. This event stimulates community involvement downtown and in neighborhood business districts, driving tourism and exploration throughout Portland. By encouraging businesses, organizations, and communities to participate, we ensure equitable access to free art for families and visitors.

Join us in building a vibrant community and providing accessible art for all, free of charge. For more information, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us! Email at [email protected].
