About NW/BCA

Northwest Business for Culture and the Arts (NW/BCA) connects business and the arts to strengthen Oregon's culture and economy. We accomplish our mission through advocacy, recognition, strategic alliances, membership programs, research, networking and communications. NW/BCA is an affiliate of the national Business Committee for the Arts, Inc.

Write Your Members of Congress to Support the Arts

Arts advocates can make their voices heard by writing their members of Congress and urging them to support funding for arts and culture through the NEA and increase funding for arts in education programs. A customizable, email letter form makes it easy.

Business Volunteers Wanted

On a project-by-project basis, NW/BCA matches executives and professionals with nonprofit arts organizations to act as free consultants in areas of their expertise. Business Volunteers for the Arts is a great way to engage in the arts and help arts organizations accomplish more with their limited resources. We are looking for business volunteers in a variety of areas. Interested in learning about volunteer opportunities?
