Hello Everyone,

Tonight, we will have a knowledge share and discussion with Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) Fish Biologist. Our guest will talk about the Willamette River salmonoid’s life cycle and resiliency in the lower Willamette/Portland harbor Superfund site. These little fry make an incredible migration to the ocean through the lower Willamette River. There are so many questions about the fry’s journey, do they sleep, rest, and for how long? What are their life cycles, and are they really connected to our forest? So many questions and tonight we hope you join us with your own questions too.

The Lower Willamette River Speaks: Gallery at Lloyd Center 
Despite floods and broken water pipes, the exhibit survived and is now at its new location at Lloyd Center in the former Ann Taylor Loft location. This is on the second-floor south-west of the ice-skating rink.  The exhibit looks wonderful there and many people are stopping to learn about the area.  We are able to host educational experiences in the store, which is a great opportunity.  You can visit the exhibit while supporting Lloyd Center’s many small businesses. It’s a great place to walk on rainy days! 

  • Open the hours of the Lloyd Center Mall
  • If you like to bring college, high, middle, and grade school class to the exhibit, reach out to have an interactive experience at the gallery; call- Sarah Taylor ‭(503) 805-4680‬ or Jan Zuckerman (503) 481-7033 for more information
  • Exhibit is on the main floor of Lloyd Center Mall across from the “closed” Made In Oregon store and Its inside the “former” Anne Taylor’s Loft store.
