Our Board

Allow us to introduce our Board of Directors!

Pantheon Arts Community Storytelling is committed to serving the voices of those with less than heard from truths, and our Board of Directors seeks to exemplify that with the voices that serve on our Board. They meet once per month, hybridly/remotely near the end of each month.

Many of these individuals are still being searched for, they are people who would lend their power and experience in publishing and building community; each of them are educators, leaders, and those who embolden connections that support our mission in the PNW and the local, greater Portland, OR area.

Thank you for your guidance!


Our 501(c)3 status is active thanks to the efforts of our Director, our Registry Number is 234652394.
