Getting
Involved
We continually work to uphold the Portland State University motto: "Let Knowledge Serve the City". Each term we host a number of public lectures, workshops, and open studio events.
Materials & Equipment Donations
The cost of project materials can be a real barrier for many of our students. We happily accept the items listed below to keep our course fees down and help fuel creative projects. Please send donation inquiries to Alison Heryer at aheryer@pdx.edu

This includes thread, notions & embellishments.
Please pre-sort small items like buttons/beads into separate baggies or containers.
