The Oregon Historical Society's annual Oregon History Makers Awards & Dinner recognizes contemporary individuals and organizations that are positively shaping the history, culture, and landscape of Oregon. This year, we are pleased to honor:

     Mike and Sure Hollern, Central Oregon Community Builders
     Jordan D. Schnitzer, Art Advocate and Civic Leader
     Patricia Reser, Champion for the Performing Arts and Philanthropy

Please join us in honoring our 2025 History Makers on Sunday, October 5, 2025, at 5pm in the Mark Building of the Portland Art Museum.

Funds raised through tickets, sponsorships, and donations at the event provide vital support for the Oregon Historical Society's mission to preserve our state's history and make it accessible to everyone in ways that advance knowledge and inspire curiosity about all the people, place, and events that have shaped Oregon.
