Donate to OASF
The Oregon Artists Series Foundation programs depend on contributions from individuals, foundations and businesses as well as important support from the Salem Convention Center.
Our generous donors enable us to support artists by placing their works in and adjacent to the Convention Center. And we invigorate the Salem community by planning for and placing public art downtown.
YOUR donation will help us continue to make Salem’s art scene vibrant.

The Oregon Artists Series Foundation offers sponsors a variety of opportunities to become directly in our presenting contemporary art. Along with the stewardship of enriching our community through inspired programming, we can tailor benefits directly to you or your company. Please email us to talk about sponsorship opportunities: oregonartistsseries@gmail.com.
Matching Gifts
If you work for, or are retired from, one of Oregon’s many community-minded companies, your contribution to the Oregon Artists Series Foundation can be twice as valuable. Some companies double or triple the amount of your gift — at no cost to you!
Check with your Human Resources department to see if your employer has a matching gift program. Ask for a Matching Gift form. Send the completed form to us at PO Box 2682, Salem, OR 97308-2682 – and we’ll take care of the rest.
Gifts of Securities
Donating stocks, bonds or shares in mutual funds can lead to a much larger gift than anticipated, with favorable tax benefits. Discuss this option with your financial advisor.
Make a Legacy Gift with a Bequest
The most straightforward way to make a planned gift is through a bequest in your will or trust. This will allow you to distribute your property in accordance with your wishes. Because the Oregon Artists Series Foundation is recognized as a tax-deductible 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation, any bequest you make will be 100% deductible, reducing the size of your taxable estate for federal and state estate tax purposes.
While your estate plan will be prepared by your attorney in consultation with your tax and financial advisors, we would be pleased to discuss various opportunities to make a bequest to the Oregon Artists Series Foundation.
