Free Education Weeks for Educators
From July 31–August 13, educators are invited to visit Five Oaks Museum, Japanese American Museum of Oregon, Museum of the Oregon Territory, Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust Education, the Oregon Historical Society, Portland Art Museum, Portland Chinatown Museum, and Pittock Mansion for free as well as take part in educator-focused events and tours. Please let staff at the institution’s admission desk know that you are an educator to access free admission (no school identification required).
Portland area cultural attractions are powerful resources for educators, offering educational tools and programs to support educators’ work in classrooms or in distance learning settings. From professional development workshops to state standards-aligned curriculum to digital resources, educators can access a wide range of tools to enhance their teaching at no cost. Educators are encouraged to take advantage of these free admission weeks to learn about the unique resources available at each institution as well as participate in special events and tours created specifically for teachers.
