Thanks to an inspiring outpouring of community support over the past two years, All Classical Radio is thrilled to share that, together, we have successfully reached the capital campaign fundraising goal to build our new home in KOIN Tower as of August 2025.
All Classical Radio’s Media Arts Center is an unmatched gathering space, resource, and broadcasting center in the heart of Downtown Portland. This a vibrant hub thoughtfully designed with you and our community in mind. Here, All Classical Radio is uplifting artists, mentoring youth, amplifying the voices of our community, and strengthening the entire arts ecosystem in bold new ways.
From the state-of-the-art microphones to the stunning performance hall, every aspect of this new home was made possible by the extraordinary community members, foundations, and businesses whose special investments are at the heart of All Classical Radio’s next chapter. On behalf of the Capital Campaign Advisory Cabinet, Board of Directors, staff, volunteers, community advisors, and the region we serve: thank you for being an essential part of this incredible journey.

In May 2023, we announced our exciting plans to move to downtown Portland and launched a $11.5 million capital campaign. As of August 2025, we have achieved this goal and completed the campaign.
