Why attend WorldQuest 2019?

WorldQuest is our biggest night of the year to raise funds and support the work of WorldOregon. This is our chance to gather for an evening of fun and festivity, while also making more possible for the future of connecting the world to Oregon and Oregon to the world. That means more global connections, intercultural education, international exchange programs, and a robust International Speaker Series in Portland. Your support is vital!

What should I wear to WorldQuest?

This year’s costume theme is based on the classic trivia board game! There will be a winner selected for the costume contest, so scheme with your table-mates before the event to decide which of the 4 categories you’ll dress to—either the color, the topic or both!

  • Green (news and current events)
  • Blue (geography and history)
  • Orange (food and drink)
  • Pink (pop culture)

How do I get to the venue and where can I park?

The venue is just a couple blocks from SE Grand Avenue, on Harrison Street in between 8th and 9th Avenues. Free street parking is available around the venue. The Trimet Line 2 Bus stops at SE 7th & Harrison, Northbound, just 0.7 miles away.

What will the program be like during WorldQuest?

Cocktail Hour:

When you arrive, there will be a cocktail hour where you’ll have a chance to participate in a raffle by purchasing a Golden Ticket. There will only be 100 sold at $100 each, and the winner gets to choose their pick of a live auction package before it’s auctioned off! Mix and mingle with other guests and have some complimentary beer or wine from the bar, along with passed hors d'oeuvres.

Program:

During dinner, you’ll hear inspiring stories about the work and impact of WorldOregon. Then you’ll be able to bid on live auction items and support WorldOregon before competing in trivia!

Trivia:

This portion of the event will be designed by a special WorldOregon trivia committee and include topics of local and global interests alike. Your table-mates will make up your team, and each table will receive a clicker to participate in trivia. The winning team gets their name on the coveted WorldQuest trophy!

What portion of my ticket or table purchase is tax deductible?

$125 of each ticket and $1,250 of each table purchase is tax deductible.
