"...an heir [to] a century-old tradition in theater that attempts to make us think, repair our insularity, make us experience a reality that we are not always exposed to and serve as a call for activism."

Boom Arts acknowledges that we work on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded lands of the Cowlitz, Clackamas, Multnomah, Kathlamet, Tualatin, Kalapuya, Molalla, Chinook, and many other tribes. Portland, OR, has the 9th largest urban Native American population in the U.S. with over 380 tribes represented from near and far, including federally recognized tribes the Grande Ronde, Cowlitz, Siletz as well as the Chinook Nation who has been seeking federal recognition for many years. We offer this acknowledgement in gratitude and appreciation for our Native communities.
**We call for an immediate permanent ceasefire and an end to the siege in Gaza that has led to a catastrophic humanitarian crisis. We hope a just diplomatic resolution can be achieved that would allow for the safety of all people in the region and equality, freedom and sovereignty for the Palestinian people. Learn more here.
