In history, many museums of today started as personal collections. This is that. I found them March…read moreFirst Thursday. I'm not attracted to dark, I've experienced enough, and I was never a goth. But for those attracted to that it is a thing. Imperfecta is a large art gallery and a gift shop. On the art side, they have very reasonably priced originals. They have many small sculptures. And they do significant installations. They have all kinds of vintage ephemeral objects. They would fit into the dark, witchy, magick, oddities realm in my view. The owner and staff, some volunteers, were present and helpful.

Imperfecta is such an amazing little art gallery in downtown Oregon City, what a treasure!

You will find paintings, sculpture, jewelry and even some prints. Basically, something for everyone. So well worth the trip.

Another fantastic museum in Oregon City!…read more This one was a comprehensive look at local history with an exceptionally interesting exhibit on the water as a power source and harnessing this power for electricity for local homes as innovators in the US at the time. There were also exhibits on schooling, clothing and pharmacy, which was fascinating as well.

This is a neat little museum nearby in Oregon city. It has several different displays with…read moreinformation about the Oregon territory. I enjoy learning about history, especially local since I'm a native Oregonian. The displays definitely had a lot going on. Sometimes you don't get as much material in the displays, so this was really nice. It's small, so it won't take a long time to go through, but it is really interesting. It would be fun to bring out of state guests to. A little Oregon history without being too overwhelming. It's kind of a nice view from so high up too. Plus they have free parking which is always nice.

Super cool historical site in Oregon City…read more There was a great and informative guide and games to play in the living room. We learned about the family who used to live there and then my husband was allowed to play the piano and found some sheet music for two songs all about Oregon. He played the songs and we did our best to sing along. Later the guide told us that the women who used to live in the house, loved music, played the piano herself and often hosted musical evenings in that very same living room. How beautiful is that!

Calling all historians!…read more The folks at the Clackamas County Historical Society would love to meet you. After being closed for several years, the Museum of the Oregon Territory spent 2011 rebuilding and they hope to expand hours and resources throughout 2012. At the moment, it is an odd schedule. Open on Wednesdays (11 - 4p) and the first and third Saturdays of the month. I've made several trips here in the past few months and in addition to the museum, they have done a great job hosting events that range from fundraisers (crab feed) to educational (oral histories from the members of the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde). They are trying to find someone to be the historian for various cities in Clackamas County and several positions are still open, including West Linn. So if I'm not careful, tag, I might be it! Nice collection of historical objects that range from the mundane to the culturally significant. Of course, there is information about the Willamette Meteorite and the father of Oregon, Dr. John McLoughlin, but I tend to focus on the quirky. One of my favorite sections of the museum is the reproduction of a turn-of-the-century Kaegi pharmacy which was located on 49th and Belmont in Portland. All that vintage glass makes me smile. Admission is free, but of course donations are joyfully accepted. There is also a good view of Willamette Falls from the second and third floors of the museum. What can I say? I'm a museum geek and love places like this. The volunteers are friendly and it is a great snapshot of our local roots. Hope they continue to build on what they've already accomplished.

Nice location for events. I've never actually been there just to view the museum. I've been to a…read moreretirement party here and a wedding. Both held upstairs in the banquet room. It's actually a nice venue for weddings. Catering kitchen, ready room, view, allows candles. It's not huge, I wouldn't suggest a wedding over 60 guests. After the ceremony, when the coordinators want to transition the room to the reception seating, they invite all of the guests to go downstairs and view the museum. It is a very interesting, well laid out museum. Lots of room for guests to wander through without feeling cramped. Friendly, helpful staff, flexible, nice view.

I have never seen it busy within this theater or in any of the auditoriums which I appreciate as I've never had to wait in line for concessions or had any issues with other movie goers during a showing. The staff working the concessions have also been nice to me and I've never had any issues with ordering here. The seating in the auditoriums has a reclining feature which makes it easier to get comfortable while watching the movie. Overall, there is nothing I have seen at this theater that has wowed me, but they do have cheaper tickets on Tuesdays and I've also never had any issues with this theater. If you are around the Oregon City area and looking for a movie to watch, I would definitely recommend this theater.
