“Architectural Heritage Center kicks off Annual Juried Art  
Exhibition”


Portland, ORE ― On November 5, the Architectural Heritage Center  
will host the opening reception of its annual juried art exhibit.   
The title of this year’s exhibit is “Fostering Harmony: The  
Symbiotic Relationship of Architecture and Nature.”

The free, public reception will announce the winners of the jury’s  
awards and give members of the public the opportunity to vote on a  
“Viewer’s Choice” award.  Artists from around the northwest  
submitted paintings, sculpture and other mixed works to the exhibit,  
which runs through the month of December.
In the weeks following the reception, the AHC will partner with  
several selected artists to present a series of “Community  
Conversations,” which will give artists and the public additional  
opportunities to explore their work as it relates to the theme of the  
exhibit.
Proceeds and sales from the exhibit benefit the artists and the  
AHC’s educational programs, advocacy efforts and collections  
stewardship.
The Architectural Heritage Center is located at 701 SE Grand Avenue  
in Portland.  More information about “Fostering Harmony” and other  
AHC programs is available at http://www.visitahc.org/content/call- 
artists-2010.
The Architectural Heritage Center is a non-profit resource center for  
historic preservation located in Portland, Oregon. Owned and operated  
by the Bosco-Milligan Foundation, The AHC hosts dozens of programs,  
workshops, and exhibits each year, helping people appreciate, restore  
and maintain vintage homes, buildings, and neighborhoods. We are also  
caretakers of one of the largest collections of architectural  
artifacts in the United States.
