Hours and Information

New and exciting programs!

Buy an Annual Pass for unlimited admission into the interpretive center for one year – visit just twice and the pass has already paid for itself. Passes also give a 10% discount in our Country Store gift shop, and free or reduced admission into a variety of partner organizations in the Clackamas County Heritage Council. Unfortunately, annual passes do not include the overland tour. .

Check out a Cultural Pass from any Clackamas County Library, or the Canby Public Library, which grants general admission for up to 2 adults and 2 children into the Interpretive Center. Find out more information about the Clackamas County Library option here, and find out more about the Canby Library option here.
