The Arts Council works in partnership with City agencies, local businesses and community members to bring the sculptures to our streets.

“Magnesis is a short film collaboration of Portland Community College instructors Evertt Beidler (Art Dept - Welding) and Erik Fauske (Multimedia Department).”

"A completely fabricated rivalry between Oregon College of Art and Craft, Portland State University, and Portland Community College."
