ARTS

Art galleries throughout The Territory showcase some of Oregon’s best local artists and visiting talent. Take in an assortment of creative works at The Spiral Gallery artists' cooperative in Estacada. Or meander through one of the Three Rivers Artist Guild galleries in Oregon City.

Spend an evening taking in critically acclaimed repertory works at the Clackamas Repertory Theatre. How about combining your love of the theatre and the arts? The Lakewood Center for the Arts puts on an annual season of plays, has a rotating art gallery space, and offers art, acting, and music classes to locals and visitors alike.

Music festivals take things to the next level in Happy Valley. Pickathon is a 3-day folk and bluegrass festival in the middle of an 80-acre farm. Sutainability is key - Pickathon was the first large outdoor music festival in the U.S. to eliminate single-use plates, cups, and utensils. Check our Events Page for upcoming theatre, music, and art events.
