- 03/23/26
OREGON CITY – The Clackamas Community College Alexander Gallery presents “The Edge of the World,” a solo exhibition by Rachel Denny. This exhibition runs March 30-April 30. An artist reception will be held Wednesday, April 1, noon-1 p.m., and Denny will speak about her work at 12:30 p.m.

Denny is an Oregon artist residing in the Cascade Foothills. Her work has been shown in Toronto, Canada, and throughout the United States. She is currently represented by Visions West Contemporary Gallery.
This exhibition is supported by funds from the Oregon Arts Commission, a policy-making and advisory body within the Oregon Business Development Department, funded by the State of Oregon and The Ford Family Foundation.

Clackamas Community College Hosts Financial Aid And Scholarship Workshop (Photo)
- 03/16/26
OREGON CITY – Clackamas Community College invites students and their families to attend the CCC Financial Aid and Scholarship Application Workshop on April 9, 4:30-6:30 p.m., at the college’s Oregon City campus in the Wacheno Welcome Center. This event is designed to help students navigate the financial aid process, including the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid), ORSAA (Oregon Student Aid Application) and the CCC scholarship application.
The FAFSA determines students' eligibility for federal grants, loans and work-study programs. The ORSAA provides access to state-based financial aid for students who are not eligible to complete the FAFSA. Submitting one of these applications also helps students qualify for programs such as the Oregon Promise, which helps many recent high school graduates attend community college with little tuition cost.
CCC’s financial aid and scholarship team will guide attendees and ensure they have the support they need to complete these essential applications. Completing the FAFSA or ORSAA is the first step to unlocking financial support that can make college more affordable, including grants that do not need to be repaid.
Why attend?
- Expert assistance: Financial aid staff will be available to provide personalized support.
- Scholarship opportunities: Learn more about applying for CCC Foundation scholarships. The average scholarship is more than $2,000, and one in three applicants receives a scholarship. The deadline to apply is April 15.
Space is limited. To register, visit https://financial-aid-workshop.eventbrite.com. For questions, email finaid@clackamas.edu or call 503-594-6082.
