Thank you for celebrating art in its most essential form—and the focused, intentional care that drives our mission.
Form & Focus explored the relationship between what is shown and how we see it. In minimalist art, form becomes the content—stripped of narrative, decoration, or distraction. This year’s theme invited guests to slow down, look closely, and experience both art and impact in their most distilled, intentional state. You delivered and helped shape an incredible of night of impact and generosity. Thank you.
portland’s most powerful night of art and impact.
The CAP Art Auction is a signature fundraising event supporting Cascade AIDS Project’s work across Oregon & Southwest Washington. Each year, we bring together artists, community members, advocates, and art lovers to raise essential funds for HIV services, LGBTQ+ healthcare, and housing support.
Featuring 100+ works generously donated by local and national artists, this unforgettable evening blends artistic excellence with heartfelt activism—reminding us that when art and purpose align, the results are transformative.
Our program will also include a heartfelt presentation of the 2026 Governor Barbara Roberts Legacy Award, honoring the late Bill Dickey’s enduring impact on our community.
