ABOUT

Founded in 2006 by Portland Real Estate Developer Brian Wannamaker, the Falcon model is a rare thing: a privately funded arts organization. This allows working artists to thrive while other residents of the community can enjoy a higher quality of life throughout the neighborhood and feel good about contributing to the success of these artists.

The Falcon Art Communityis comprised of some of the best musicians, painters, sculptors, composers, writers and actors in Portland, carefully selected through a portfolio review.
