The FORWARD! Campaign focuses on four important goals for the long-term benefit of this treasured institution:

A new and inclusive exhibit on Oregon's early history to serve tens of thousands of Oregon's children, families, and visitors of all ages (remaking the entire 3rd floor);

A renovated library to better serve visitors, staff, and our collections;

A Digital Vault to preserve our fragile history (like film and negatives) and to provide worldwide access to our priceless collections; and,

Endowments to secure these achievements into the future.

About Us

For more than a century, the Oregon Historical Society has served as the state’s collective memory, preserving a vast collection of artifacts, photographs, maps, manuscript materials, books, films, and oral histories. Our research library, museum, digital platforms & website, educational programming, and historical journal make Oregon’s history open and accessible to all. We exist because history is powerful, and because a history as deep and rich as Oregon’s cannot be contained within a single story or point of view.
