Join for the opening reception of WOODCORE! The event will feature a live ceremonial drum circle led by featured artist Bobby Mercier of the Confederated Tribe of the Grand Ronde. Many exhibiting artists will be present and light refreshments will be served. WOODCORE presents work by seven Oregon-based artists and woodworkers who laboriously carve, shape, and transform the raw material of wood. Ranging from traditional Indigenous carving practices to more radical, sculptural experimentation, these sculptors—Megita Denton, Bobby Mercier, Leroy Setziol, Monica Setziol-Phillips, Julian Watts, Ben Young, and Adam Zeek—embody the distinctive energy of the Pacific Northwest. Each of the artists find pleasure in scraps of wood—respectfully sourced from fallen or salvaged trees, road shoulders, or job sites, often obtained through personal connections or happenstance. They share a reverence for wood—not just as a material, but as an enchanting remnant of life, place and history.

The Imperfecta Gallery presents ANCESTORS, an exhibition featuring Reese Bowes. On view on May 3-31, the show features artworks created to draw one's attention "away from the digital edifice and interface, by subverting it and destructing it and choosing materials that mimic and mock it." As the artist explains: "To think beyond the strictures and structures erected around our physical and mental bodies is an ever present struggle. The commodification of expression in all its forms, a weight bearing down on all of us. Belief in other worlds and benign futures becoming mere figments of our collective imagination." With ANCESTORS, the artist explores how decoupled true images have become from reality yet reminds us that we have the ability of creating work that maintains humanity, employing technology in its construction. Each piece is a collection of images superimposed and overexposed, then chromatically divided equally across three plates that serve to create a static hologram.

The Museum of the Oregon Territory has received funding to support a new exhibit and education programs on the history of the Jennings Lodge Camp in Clackamas County.

Discover the legacy of this historic gathering place and learn how it changed over time. This exhibit looks at the history of the Jennings Lodge Camp. How did the camp experience change over time? How is it different from today? This history is woven together through the overarching theme of a gathering place for a religious experience and sense of community.
