Our Mission

Our mission is three-fold: 1. Rae Loft strives to be a leader in the local venue sector by offering a cost-efficient community gathering and event space that doesn't compromise on elegance or quality, despite its lower costs. 2. We aim to foster collaboration with local nonprofit organizations and their events and remove cost barriers for low budget events and families. 3. We promote equality and justice for women, victims of sexual assault, harassment, and domestic violence, and support women, queer, and minority owned businesses through the avenues of our events.

Our Vision

Rae Loft at the Bakery Building is an exploration in turn key event spaces targeting a demographic of clients seeking a transformable or ready-made venue with elegance and unique bohemian style, without the need to sacrifice budget or quality. We partner with small woman-owned businesses, non-profit organizations, and host community events.

Land Acknowledgement

The Bakery Blocks Building rests on traditional lands of the Multnomah, Wasco, Cowlitz, Kathlamet, Clackamas, Bands of Chinook, Tualatin, Kalapuya, Molalla, and many other Tribes and Indigenous People who made their homes along the Columbia and Willamette Rivers. Indigenous people have called the Portland Metro area their home for over 11,000 years. We recognize that Portland is a community of many diverse and vibrant Native peoples who continue to thrive, live, study, and work here. We respectfully acknowledge and honor all of the Indigenous communities, even those not named here —past, present, future—and are grateful for their ongoing presence.  As a leaseholder in this building - on this land - Rae Loft acknowledges our privilege here, and recognize the systemic and governmental current and historical policies of genocide, relocation, and assimilation that still impact many Indigenous/Native American families and Tribes today. As settlers and guests on these lands, we respect the work of Indigenous leaders and families, and pledge to make ongoing efforts to partner with and recognize their knowledge, creativity, and resilience.
