Celebrate Oregon’s birthday in style at the Oregon Historical Society! Oregon shares its birthday with Valentine’s Day–what could be a better way to celebrate the holiday than by professing your love for Oregon? The celebration begins on Tuesday, February 14 at noon in the Oregon Historical Society pavilion (1200 SW Park Ave., Portland). Join radio broadcaster Margie Boule in singing “Happy Birthday” to Oregon, and then enjoy a slice of birthday cake served by former Governors Ted Kulongoski and Barbara Roberts. While you feast on cake from Gerry Frank’s Konditeri, listen to a musical performance by the Oregon Old Time Fiddlers Association. As a birthday gift for all Oregonians, admission will be free all day (10am — 5pm) to the Oregon Historical Society’s museum! Don’t miss the chance to explore our three permanent exhibits on Oregon history, Oregon My Oregon, Oregon Voices, and our newest exhibit for young Oregonians, History Hub!
