Oregon Origins Project is an innovative arts and culture initiative which explores the ancient origins of the state of Oregon through creative expression. The project provides a platform for Indigenous artists and culture bearers to share their living traditions and artistic work, and an opportunity for artists of all disciplines to create new work inspired by the state’s origins
