Troutdale Historical Society Presents

Celebrate the holiday season at Stories and Smiles with Santa on November 30th, from noon to 3 PM, at the Barn Exhibit Hall Museum! This free, family-friendly event includes festive treats like cookies and hot cider. Bring your camera to snap a picture with Santa, and don’t forget to write him a letter to drop in his special Santa bag. 

At 1 PM, local author Jason Cawood will read his latest book, Midnight & Finn Save Troutdale, in a cozy reading circle that’s perfect for kids and parents alike. Then, from 2 PM to 3 PM, join author and illustrator Angel Garza for a creative coloring circle. She'll be sharing stories of historical landmarks featured in her new coloring book Color the Columbia: Gorge-ous Views from Troutdale to Cascade Locks. Coloring supplies will be provided, so all you need to bring is your imagination!

Come out for a festive afternoon of stories, smiles, and seasonal fun for all ages!
