I want to recognize NAYA, the Native Arts and Culture Foundation, and Indigenous and Native artists for their cultural, economic, and social contributions to the richness of our city. These installations are a key piece of strengthening Portland by building belonging together.

For millenia, the arts have helped us grieve, heal, and celebrate together. I hope this installation will incubate new ideas, opportunities, and frames for cultural expression so future generations will continue to experience the energy and enrichment that comes from the arts.

Dana's compassionate, community-centered, and transformative leadership creates safe, loving, and welcoming spaces while respecting the innate wisdom of participants. She believes that everyone is entitled to dignity and belonging no matter where they live or what their story.

“Hopefully folks can see themselves in this data,” says @PortlandBPS policy analyst Kyle Diesner, “and hopefully they can see opportunities within their own life where they can implement changes to reduce these emissions by putting the data out here.” opb.org/article/2024/1…
