Tenth Annual City of Portland Archives Open House. You’re Invited!
Ever wondered where the city keeps its historical records? Ever wanted to see the first hand-written ordinances or the city or police dockets from the turn of the last century? From the Olmstead plan for Portland to construction photos of Bull Run, the City of Portland Archives and Records has it all!
Please join us for Tenth Annual Open House on Friday, October 2nd from 1:00 to 4:00 PM.
There will be tours of the facility at 1:30 and 3:00, the ever popular Portland history trivia challenge and delicious root beer floats while they last.This will be our last open house in our current location. We are moving to a larger and more centrally located space in 2010. To mark this occasion you are invited to enjoy our new exhibit entitled “The History of the Portland Archives and Records Program.” This exhibit explores and celebrates where we have come from as we prepare to move to our new location.
