We're excited to announce the beginning of our Cultural Resources Economic Fund (CREF) process for 2027-2029. Click the banner above for more information on how to apply.

While the opening of the new CREF slate applications window is a major focus for CACO right now, it's only one piece of what we'll be working on as we head toward the next legislative session. Alongside CREF, CACO is actively engaged in efforts to renew and increase the Oregon Cultural Trust Tax Credit, exploring the Lodging Tax as a pathway to fully funding the Oregon Cultural Trust, advocating for increased Oregon Arts Commission funding, and pursuing several other priorities that strengthen Oregon's cultural sector.
