PPS Arts Community Partners

This page is to serve as a central hub for communicating to our teachers, students and communities the vast array of dynamic opportunities available by our PPS Arts Partners. Here art partners can submit information about upcoming events and our teachers, staff, students and community members can explore exciting ways to engage in the rich tapestry of Portland’s artistic landscape.
