In Hebrew, ORA means “light”: luminosity, warmth, perspective, liveliness, brightness.
ORA is a group of artists in the Portland area who have come together to support, share, inspire, enjoy and showcase our art.

In the process of forming this collective, we not only have created opportunities to exhibit members’ works of art, we also support each other’s artistic development.

Our media include collage, paint, silk, fused glass, fiber, precious metals, ceramics, beadwork and photography.

We welcome you to experience our wide variety of art forms within the context of the Jewish experience.
