Dear friend,
Portland Parks Foundation recently partnered with Lift UP and several other local nonprofits to create a community event in the South Park Blocks. While the event was cancelled due to the COVID-19 Delta Variant, many locally-based artists committed to promoting mutual aid groups and organizations that support racial equity, food access, and community support. We’re honored to share two videos featuring two fun, innovative artists that support our cause!
A HUGE thank you to the Portland Parks Foundation
for all of their support!
