Mechanics' Hall 2024-2025 Annual Fund

Have you ever experienced the thrill of connecting with a favorite author, the energy of live music, or the beauty of a live performance? At Mechanics’ Hall, we create those transformative experiences every day.

Mechanics’ Hall is more than a venue; it’s a community resource dedicated to supporting big ideas, nurturing creativity and preserving history.

We believe that arts and humanities guide us towards something like hope. At Mechanics' Hall, we cultivate emathy and foster dialogue. We aim to encourage civic engagement and critical thinking by celebrating literature, hosting authors, and providing space for dance, music, lectures, performances, and more. These are the things that help us understand who we are and what it means to be human.

From dance premieres and original music compositions to poetry readings, book launches, and modern operas, Mechanics’ Hall is a place where people gather to be inspired and connect with each other. Today, we invite you to support this vibrant community by making a gift to the Mechanics’ Hall Annual Fund.

Your gift is more than just a donation—it’s a vital investment in the future of Portland’s Arts District. By contributing, you become a part of the Mechanics’ Hall story, helping us continue to be a hub of creativity in downtown Portland.

We at Mechanics’ Hall genuinely appreciate your support and engagement with our work. Your contribution is a testament to your belief in our mission: Please, consider donating today.

Together, we can ensure that Mechanics’ Hall remains a gathering place for creativity and connection. We look forward to seeing you at the Hall!
