The 'trumpet' and the 'paintbrush'!
Portland Columbia Symphony Orchestra extends its congratulations to the Center for the Arts Foundation for completing the next phase of the arts plaza in downtown Gresham. On hand to celebrate the occasion were the musicians of the Portland Brass Quintet (PCSO members Greg Scholl on Trombone and Allan Stromquist on horn).
The 'paintbrush'
The four art pillars were designed and constructed by Seattle artist Claudia Fitch. They represent the four major art fields: performing arts, music, visual arts, literary arts.
Claudia Fitch talks about the research and design of the four pillars. Note the lovely stained glass piece donated to the Center by a local artist on the occasion of this dedication!
Congratulations to the City of Gresham! PCSO looks forward to the day when a performance hall sits on this site and they are the resident orchestra!
