¡Prospera! is Friday, September 26, 2025. We will welcome guests starting at 5:30 pm, with the dinner and program beginning at 7:00 pm.

While we would love to welcome guests of all ages, due to the open bars and wine service at each table, ¡Prospera! is a 21+ event.

Yes, you will need to purchase a ticket online here. You can choose an individual ticket or become a table host.

The evening will begin with appetizers, complimentary wine and beer, and a super-cool photo opportunity, followed by a delicious plated meal. Our inspirational program includes stories of impact and information about our Mobile Health Program, and of course plenty of opportunities to support our work through the purchase of raffle tickets, auction items, or direct donations.

Festive attire is encouraged! Check out last year’s photos to see how guests styled the night.

There is generally plenty of street parking surrounding the Museum. These spaces range from 1 – 4 hours and can be paid for using a credit card or the Parking Kitty app. There are also surface parking lots, and parking garages within 1 – 4 blocks of the Museum. The closest surface lot is located at SW Main St. between SW 10th Ave. and Park Ave, and there are dedicated accessible and van accessible spaces. This lot accepts credit card or the Reef app.

Getting to get to the Museum by public transportation is straightforward and economical. The bus and streetcar travel directly past the Museum, and the MAX light rail has a stop only four blocks away. TriMet’s Trip Planner gives you step-by-step travel directions from your location by bus, light rail, or streetcar.
