Description
The Van Evera Bailey Fellowship invites creative proposals that advance the professional development of architects and related professionals and help them contribute more to their profession and community. It reflects Van Evera and Janet M. Bailey’s dedication of part of their 1982 gift to Oregon Community Foundation to “the preservation and betterment of the art and science of architecture.”
The Architecture Foundation of Oregon awards the fellowship in partnership with Oregon Community Foundation. It welcomes proposals connected to professional growth and the broader value of architecture rather than prescribing one type of project.
