The outpouring of support for All Classical Radio’s capital campaign has been so inspiring—and we are rapidly closing in on the finish line. At 88% to our fundraising goal, your donation right now will make a big difference. Together we are building a bright future for classical music and the arts in this region, and beyond, broadcasting from the heart of Downtown Portland. At KOIN Tower, All Classical will celebrate and uplift artists, connect communities, amplify youth voices, and strengthen the entire arts ecosystem in new ways, leveraging the impact and reach of this community-funded service for the greater good. From the microphones to the performance hall, it’s all made possible by you. We can’t wait to open our doors in fall 2024, and welcome you to the media arts center we have built together. We’re nearly there…
-Suzanne Nance, President & CEO, All Classical Radio
RELOCATION CAPITAL CAMPAIGN PROGRESS
In May 2023, we announced our exciting plans to move to downtown Portland and launched a $10 million capital campaign. As of August 2024, 88% of the goal has been secured, with less than $1.5 million left to raise. This monumental progress would not be possible without early and generous investment from leadership donors and foundations who believe in the power of our airwaves.

“Our benefactor, Jack Murdock, believed strongly in the power and potential of radio to bring people together, and All Classical Radio has been doing just that for forty years. We are thrilled to support their move to a new broadcast studio in the heart of Portland so they can continue to engage and inspire for forty more years, and beyond.”
-Lorin Schmit Dunlop, Senior Director of Arts, Culture & Education, The M. J. Murdock Charitable Trust
