MELT Method® Workshops
The MELT Method® is a simple self-treatment that reduces chronic pain and helps you stay healthy, youthful, and active for a lifetime. Research has revealed the missing link to pain-free living: a balanced nervous system and healthy connective tissue. These two components work together to provide your body support and optimal mind-body communication. MELT addresses these two systems of your body in a way no other self-treatment can. As little as 10 minutes of MELT three times a week is all your body needs to begin reducing the effects of accumulated tension and stress caused by daily living. See and feel results in the first session! The ultimate goal of MELT is to improve your body’s ability to restore balance and repair itself, which can create remarkable, lasting changes.

Located minutes south of downtown Hillsboro, Jackson Bottom Wetlands Preserve’s 635 acres are a quiet sanctuary for both people and wildlife. Over 200 species of birds have been sighted at Jackson Bottom, including nesting bald eagles, osprey and great blue herons. Thousands of northern pintails and other waterfowl visit each winter, making Jackson Bottom a haven for bird watchers. The Preserve is home to deer, otters, beavers, and hundreds of other species. Providing interpretive education on wetlands and wildlife, panoramic views, natural resources management, trails and recreation, Jackson Bottom Wetlands Preserve is a treasure for the entire region.
Wetlands Education Center
With the help of generous donations, dedicated volunteers, and the vision of the non-profit Jackson Bottom Board of Directors the Jackson Bottom Wetlands Education Center opened on September 27, 2003. The 12,000 square-foot farm-style building blends well with its natural surroundings and a 3,000-square foot wraparound deck that connects the Center to the trails leading into the Preserve. The covered deck overlooking the Preserve is a perfect space for rentals and special events. The Wetlands Education Center includes an exhibit hall filled with interactive exhibits on wetlands and natural history, and the only bald eagle nest on display in the continental United States. The Center also has a Nature Store and a multipurpose space for programs.

Be on the lookout for one of our roving naturalists when you visit Jackson Bottom Wetlands Preserve on weekends beginning in May. These volunteers are out on the trails with a friendly smile, information on seasonal points of interest and answers to your questions. Check in with the front desk when you arrive to learn if a roving naturalist is on duty and where they might be found.
Sunset Sit & Moonrise Smile
Once a month make time in your day to relax and take in the eastern sky as the sun sets and the moon rises. Vivid colors paint the sky, the earth’s shadow rises, heralding the coming of night, and a full moon makes its dramatic entrance into the night sky. Daytime wildlife seeks shelter as nighttime creatures emerge. Join us thirty minutes before sunset, once a month, at select Hillsboro park sites. A Hillsboro Parks & Recreation naturalist is on hand to help you tune in to the many wonderful events that attend the passing of day into night. Dress comfortably for the weather. Bring a chair and something warm to drink if you like. Free. No registration required. Rood Bridge Park, 4000 Rood Bridge Road Wed

Located in the heart of Downtown Hillsboro, the Glenn and Viola Walters Cultural Arts Center is built on a site with a rich history of community involvement that began when Trinity Lutheran Church began construction of the building in 1947. Members of the parish pitched in and labored together to construct the frame of the building, donating both their goods and talents to create the church which would later become the Walters Cultural Arts Center in 2004.
Walters Cultural Arts Center
Glenn & Viola Walters Cultural Arts Center
The Walters is a ground-breaking facility that provides expanded opportunities for youth and adult art education and training, community access to excellent regional and national artists and speakers, and increased opportunities for local arts organizations, and professional and emerging artists. It is the first site constructed in Hillsboro with the intention of showcasing cultural events and providing community-centered education in the arts. The establishment of the Glenn & Viola Walters Cultural Arts Center and its programming has enabled the City of Hillsboro to expand and enrich the services available to its Residents and the surrounding community.
Culture & Creativity Come Together:
The Walters is home to diverse range of cultural offerings through our Concert Series, Gallery Season, and Tuesday Happenings. Our arts education programming includes camps and classes for students all ages in ceramics, painting, drawing, theatre, music, animation, and more. The Walters is a proud showplace for the arts and a vibrant representation of Hillsboro’s commitment to culture and the arts. Creativity, culture and community—your cultural arts center has it all.
Celebrate Your Special Event:
With its classic red-stone architecture, stained glass features, custom woodwork ceiling arches, concert-quality sound system, and fine art gallery, the Walters is one of the west side’s most treasured sites for weddings, parties and other special events. Whether you’d like an intimate family reception for 40 guests in our fine art gallery, an extravagant party for 200 in the theatre, or an outdoor reception on the lawn, the Walters provides a variety of amenable and affordable options for your special event. For more information about events, classes and rentals at the Walters, go to www.hillsboro-oregon.gov/Walters.

Inside/Outside: Reflections on Portland & Oaxaca
Color & Shape
Jesús Kobe García and Cristóbal Santos
June 6— July 24 | Upstairs & Downstairs Gallery
April 4— May 22 | Upstairs Gallery This mixed-media collection explores the reflections of two artists—two brothers—who have lived their lives in two places: Oaxaca and Portland. In these pieces, they express what they see inside and outside of themselves as they move through the two cities closest to their hearts.
Following in the tradition of Mark Rothko and Barnett Newman, the pioneers of color field painting—an offshoot of abstract expressionism that is both modern and mythic—this powerful collection expresses a yearning for transcendence and experience outside of symbolism. Large, looming, and fantastically bright, Jeffrey Jurrens’ colorscapes encounter the viewer without the pretense of being anything other than what they are: color and shape—pure and impressive.
Latino Landscapes
First Tuesday Reception*:
Victor Fuentes and Inmaculada Cruz April 4— May 22 | Downstairs Gallery Fuentes and Cruz explore their Latin American roots through the trees, flowers, animals, people and architecture of the physical and cultural landscapes they inhabited in their youth. Deceptively simple, these richly-colored paintings reflect with vividness and intensity the artists’ memories and impressions as they reinvent the vistas of their homelands with exuberance, freedom, and nostalgia.
First Tuesday Reception:
May 2 | 5 — 6:30 pm Live music in the lobby by Luminous Heart
Jeff Jurrens
June 6 | 5 — 6:30 pm Live music in the lobby by Catherine Bede *Due to the holiday, there is no First Tuesday reception on July 4.

The Frida Project
Group Mural Exhibition August 1— September 25 | Upstairs & Downstairs Galleries In the spirit of cross-cultural understanding and collaboration between Latin American and Caucasian communities in Hillsboro, the Frida Project brought together a group of Hillsboro artists whose multiple perspectives explore themes of intersecting identities and cultures. Together, these artists have created a collection of mural panels that reflect the powerful legacy of the great Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, and explore possibilities for how her work and ideas might relate to our home here in the Willamette Valley.
First Tuesday Receptions:
August 1 | 5 — 6:30 pm Live music in the lobby by Austin Randle September 5 | 5 — 6:30 pm Live music in the lobby by Bob Shoemaker

“The city that opens the same book closes it in greater harmony.”
The Other Wes Moore: One Name, Two Fates
HILLSBORO
READS
“The chilling truth is that his story could have been mine. The tragedy is that my story could have been his.” Two kids named Wes Moore were born blocks apart within a year of each other. Both grew up fatherless in similar Baltimore neighborhoods and had difficult childhoods; both hung out on street corners with their crews; both ran into trouble with the police. How, then, did one grow up to be a Rhodes Scholar, decorated veteran, White House Fellow, and business leader, while the other ended up a convicted murderer serving a life sentence? Wes Moore, the author of this fascinating book, sets out to answer this profound question. In alternating narratives that take readers from heart-wrenching losses to moments of surprising redemption, The Other Wes Moore tells the story of a generation of boys trying to find their way in a hostile world.
