Over the summer, Cada Casa’s AIMS program collaborated with VIBES Studio and Beaverton’s Mayor Beaty as she visits various businesses in the area. AIMS is a project-based mentorship program that pairs emerging creatives with affinity-grouped mentors in a curated, real-world project.

Cada Casa teamed up with @santonoventa and @piagu to host Futsal Clandestino — an underground futsal tournament of some of Portland’s elite street ballers.

On May 4th, we hosted a creative exhibition celebrating the work of the Spring 2025 Trust the Process cohort. These high school students spent the last few weeks exploring what it means to create freely and tell their stories through design. This show is a reflection of their growth, courage, and creativity.

Cascadia United partnered with Cada Casa AIMS program and Beaverton High’s Digital Media Pathway for their 2025 Media Day. We are proud sponsors of the club, our emerging creatives, and the collaborative effort in making Beaverton dope.

An AIMS collab between LionHeart Coffee, Beaverton Highschool and the Cada Casa Apparel Design Program. Beaverton High Graphic Productions students have developed client briefs, timelines, mood boards, concepts, iterations, refinements, mockups, and storyboards in the development of the piece and content.  Similar to the local craftsmanship of every drink made at Lionheart, each step of the process was done with great care and intention. From graphic design, to shooting and editing, to hand printing each garment, the entire design process was done in house, allowing students to see a variety of careers and creative avenues.

Cada Casa AIMS students partnered with JUNTOSpdx to film, photography and screen print at their Nuestra Cultura event. Our of the core missions of JUNTOSpdx is to inspire the present to help strengthen the future of our community. The goal of this program is to provide guidance and real-world opportunities in their goals of becoming professional creatives. What you're viewing now are examples of the unique moments the students captured throughout Nuestra Cultura, showcasing their creativity and hard work in action. AIMS (Apprenticeships, Internships, Mentorships, Support) is a project-based mentorship program that pairs emerging creatives with affinity-grouped mentors in a curated, real-world project.

Frustrated by vandalism, Tursi Soccer has decided to change tactics and retake control of the urban pitch. In the world of Portland professional soccer, there is one phrase that capture the mentality and commitment of our supporters: Rose City Till I Die. This mural features a stylized gothic lettering set to a Portland cityscape and Cascade range background spanning two walls, just blocks from Providence Park. It is the capstone project of the ‘23-’24 Cada Casa CANS program, bringing students from three different schools together to create over 3000 square feet of dope street art.

Cada Casa partnered with NORF to provide an elegant and elevated platform for performers, musicians, models, designers, DJ’s, videographers, photographers, graphic designers and producers to not just see what the next level looks like, but also to invite them into the process in a structured mentorship program. NORF (Northwest Originated Rhythm & Fashion) is an annual event highlighting emerging designers and performers. Cada Casa facilitated the AIMS Content Crew experience, Apparel Design workshops, Beyond the Decks DJ alumni and mentors, screen printing, and event build out.

Beaverton High Digital Media students had the opportunity to visit Industry in preparation for the NORF Fashion show. Armando Garcia, Senior Art Director, led the students through the process of understanding tone/mood, outlining the different types of contents to be captured, and the technical specs on how to do so. The field trip ended with an in-prompt photoshoot where students were able to get behind and in front of the camera for some portrait practice.
