Meaningful work that creates a lasting impact

Friends of Timberline began in 1975 with a fabric restoration project through the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA), which federally employed more than 10,000 artists over an 8 year period, and continued with small and large scale restoration, construction, and conservation projects for nearly 50 years.
