CAP Annual Art Evening and Auction



Madison Millinger and fine rug-maker Lapchi are donating this beautiful handmade wool runner to the Cascade AIDS Project's (CAP) Annual Art Evening and Auction. The runner will be raffled along with this incredible red leather chair by Camrich from our sister store, JD Madison.

The not-to-be-missed annual event, sponsord by Portland Monthly is one of CAP's biggest (and most fun) fundraiser's of the year! The evening includes dinner with selections from some of Portland's best restaurants, silent and live art auctions and a live performance from the incomparable Cirque Du Soleil. Visit the CAP Art Auction website for more information on how you can help CAP, and and maybe win some great home furnishings!

All funds raised support the vital work of Cascade AIDS Project. Our mission is to lead efforts to prevent new HIV infections, care for people affected and infected by HIV/AIDS, educate communities to eliminate stigma and shame and advocate for immediate action in combating the pandemic.

Save 25% on all Rugs for Earth Day

Celebrate Earth Day with 25% Savings on all in-stock handmade rugs at Madison Millinger for the rest of the month of April.



Hand-woven rugs have been “green” long before the concept was even thought of. Our rugs are made entirely by hand with virtually no machinery. Both the wool of the pile and the cotton of the foundation are completely renewable and readily available. The fibers are combed by hand and spun by hand using a foot pedal for power. All natural vegetal dyes are often used and the rugs are woven and finished all by hand.

The Pinnacle of Recyclability
Hand-woven rugs also provide the ultimate recycling opportunity; they last for decades and therefore can be passed on for generations. A refreshing idea in today’s overly-disposable world.
