P'5 facilities are City owned and operated by Metro under the direction of the Metro Exposition and Recreation Commission (MERC). The City's obligation to this support is found in Section 5 of the Agreement Regarding Consolidation of Regional Convention, Trade, Spectator and Performing Arts Facilities Owned and Operated by the City of Portland and Metro, which was established in 1990 and amended in 1992, 2000 and 2013. The funds are used to support the operations and capital needs at the venues and to enable them to continue to provide performing arts venues to a wide range of users. The amount of the City's obligation under the Agreement escalates annually by the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Services 565

City of Portland Fiscal Year 2026-27 Proposed Budget Equity Impacts P'5 consists of three separate buildings: the Keller Auditorium, the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, and the Antoinette Hatfield Hall which houses Newmark Theatre, Dolores Winningstad Theatre, and Brunish Theatre. The facilities serve as the home performance venue for five resident companies (Portland Opera, Oregon Ballet Theater, Oregon Symphony, Oregon Children's Theater, and Portland Youth Philharmonic) and hosts five presenting arts organizations (White Bird Dance, Stumptown Stages. Portland Arts and Lectures (Literary Arts), Metropolitan Youth Symphony, and Broadway in Portland). In addition, P'5 also presents events independently, which allows the venues to diversify income streams, expand business opportunities, welcome new and emerging performers, and engage new audiences. The P'5 free event series brings local, national and international performers to the theaters and streets of Portland, entertaining thousands and includes: Music on Main Street; Summer Arts on Main; Noontime Showcase; and Poets on Broadway. The venues host over 1,000 music, theater, dance, and lecture performances each year, draw nearly one million patrons to downtown Portland's Cultural District and generate an average of $80 million in regional spending every year. P'5 assesses its impact on the economy annually; in FY 2017-18 P'5 produced an estimated economic impact of $84.5 million and 830 full-time equivalent jobs.. P'5 runs an active education and engagement program that helps fulfil their commitment to celebrating diversity and broadening access to the performing arts for people of all means, cultures, and ethnicities. Changes to Program The City's obligation to provide this support is found in Section 5 of the Agreement Regarding Consolidation of Regional Convention, Trade, Spectator and Performing Arts Facilities Owned and Operated by the City of Portland and Metro and is not expected to change in the foreseeable future. The Spectator Venues Program provides staff liaison services to P'5 and the Spectator Venues and Visitor Activities Fund is authorized to expend funds on financial planning and contract administration and oversight for P'5. 566
