COMMUNITY
Creating a
New Bridge
Elevating the city of Portland’s unique and bustling art and creative scene, INDUSTRY One provides high quality productions that amplify and connect local and international artists alike. This new bridge of opportunity, provides a true representation of the positive stories our communities create. We are focused on supporting and growing a healthy economic stability by providing experiences that showcase who Portland truly is.
We are dedicated to providing an inclusive and accessible space to our local BIPOC communities.
A place where community comes together to celebrate one another, create, connect, and learn. We do this through artist led workshops, space donations, and community events where we amplify local voices.
