Leadership Giving

Members of the Cornerstone Society and President's Council value OPB's superb programs and share a commitment to ensure that these important services continue to grow in excellence and impact each year. The Cornerstone Society recognizes donors who give an annual gift of $1,000—$9,999 and the President's Council recognizes donors who give an annual gift of $10,000 or more.

For our latest OPB Salon Series: Culture and Ecology in the Cascades, members of the President's Council and Cornerstone Society gathered in the beautiful setting of the Caldera Arts Center near Sisters, Oregon. Attendees experienced nature in this region of the Cascades, made art and shared memorable meals together in the warm sunshine and fresh air of a spectacular Harvest Moon weekend. Our gathering included Oregon Field Guide's Vince Patton, Oregon Art Beat's Katrina Sarson, naturalists Sue and Jim Anderson, and friends from Atelier 6000 and the Deschutes Land Trust. We were fortified by the gourmet creations of Jen's Garden and CRUX Fermentation Project provided a fascinating and delicious tasting of their craft brews. Want more information about the Salon Series? Please contact Julie Arnzen at 503.977.7765 or jarnzen@opb.org.
