Portland General Electric is excited to be the presenting sponsor of the 9th annual Portland Winter Light Festival, a citywide celebration bringing together art, technology and inclusivity to the downtown area. Hosted by the Willamette Light Brigade, the festival takes place at various locations, transforming the city with more than 160 beautiful light displays, projections and interactive setups for everyone to enjoy.

To kickoff the festival, PGE welcomed more than 3,600 hundred guests to its All Electric Home over the weekend. The electric home was decorated by a local artist Holly Hogan, who transformed single-use plastics into sea barnacles and octopi!
