Portland Ovations is 90 years old! Since 1931, Ovations has been your nonprofit performing arts organization inspiring a curious and imaginative community where the experience of the performing arts is a vital part of everyday life. Celebrate with us at a virtual, 3-part benefit party filled with Artists, Auctions, & Performances streamed to you LIVE from the Merrill Auditorium stage with esteemed emcees Kerem Durdag & Sara Juli and our hosts, Mary Allen Lindemann & Aimée M. Petrin, and wrapping up with a live dance party hosted by Portland’s own Cherry Lemonade.
Thanks to the generosity of our POP Star Hosts, admission to this event is free or by suggested donation. We hope that if you are able to support Ovations you will consider making a contribution of $90 in celebration of our 90th year.
