For the seventeenth consecutive year, Elliott, Powell, Baden, and Baker is proud to be the title sponsor of the Oregon Music Hall of Fame (OMHOF)induction ceremony, which was held October 12th, at the Alladin Theatre in Southeast Portland. The Oregon Music Hall of Fame honors Oregonians who have contributed to or significantly impacted the music industry’s evolution, development, and perpetuation.
One of the most significant outcomes of generous OMHOF sponsorship is the ability to offer yearly scholarships to selected graduating Oregon high school seniors who have exhibited serious pursuit and accomplishment in their personal musicianship and who are college-bound music majors. In seventeen years, OMHOF has provided approximately seventy scholarships to kids in the our community.
The fundraising effort this year included an auction of autographed guitars, including those of Peter Framptom, Everclear, Paul Stanley and Deadmen Walking, amongst others.
“Elliott Powell Baden & Baker Insurance has been our title sponsor for all seventeen years of our Annual Inductions of the Oregon Music Hall of Fame,” says Terry Currier, OMHOF Board President and Owner of Music Millenium in Northeast Portland.” They have made it possible for us to realize our goals of promoting and preserving the musical arts in Oregon, and their support of our organization is with us throughout the year as they continue to find other ways to support OMHOF. “
