MULTNOMAH ARTS CENTER

Family arts classes are designed for parents, guardians, and children to interact and participate together. Our philosophy is to honor the child’s creative impulses— focusing on process, rather than product. • Performing arts classes offer opportunities for children and their adults to participate together in an exploration of movement, song, and creative drama in a safe, joyful, and welcoming environment. • Visual arts classes provide instruction in the use of art materials and techniques and encourage each child’s individual style of visual expression. We recommend both adult and child wear grubbies as these classes can be messy. All materials are included. Clean-up is part of all MAC Youth visual art classes.

SWIM LESSONS Swim lessons for all ages and skill levels are available for preschoolers (3-5 years), youth (6 years and up), and adults. Children under the age of three can take lessons with their parent(s) in our adult/ child (Angelfish and Starfish) classes.

Non-Swimmers and children under 48 inches in height must have a parent or guardian, age 16 or older, in the water within arms reach at all times. FAMILY PLAY SWIM Recreational swim for parents and children. Enjoy the shallow water, play mats, water basketball and more.

COLUMBIA INDOOR POOL is closed until further notice due to life-safety hazards for building occupants. Portland Parks & Recreation (PP&R) understands this is disappointing news for the North Portland community. The unreinforced masonry structure is nearing the end of its useful life, and PP&R must prioritize public safety while determining the next steps for Columbia Pool. Since 2008, PP&R has worked with independent professional roofing contractors to inspect the building’s roof while also performing internal quarterly reviews. The inspections indicated, among other things, deterioration of sections of the roof, visible damage to the roof’s supporting wood structure, and life-safety hazards present in the domed roof structure over the pool. Therefore, the independent structural engineer recommends that Columbia Pool not be re-opened to the public in its current condition. PP&R will share more information with the public once the next steps for Columbia Pool are determined. If you have questions, please email pkrsst@portlandoregon.gov.

LADYBUG NATURE WALKS | Age 6 & under with an adult Ladybug Nature Walks take place in Portland's parks and natural areas. They are perfect for toddlers and preschoolers who want to explore in nature with a trained educator. Children attend with an adult who assists in guiding them along as they explore. Ladybug Nature Walks are a way for children ages 6 and under (and an adult) to explore a local Portland park. Nature educators guide families to notice plants and animals. Walks are child-directed and open-ended. Nature educators walk with the children in small groups. Children learn through questions, observation, and play. Groups move slowly through the park, stopping often. In this way, children have time to notice the plants and animals around them. If we have extra time we might also read a story, sing a song, or use puppets for imaginative play. Walks last one hour. Content is geared for children ages 15 months–6 years. (Younger siblings under 15 months are welcome. Please give us their names and ages when prompted during registration.) While exploring with a nature educator, children borrow a small ladybug backpack containing a few tools that are easy to clean: • • • • • • •

Magnifying lens Small plastic tub with a lid Metal spoon Laminated color wheel for matching Plastic bug box Plastic paintbrush Small toy insect for imaginative play

CREATIVE ARTS Arts and Crafts—Voices Uncensored: Finding Joy

Cyanotype: Printing with Sunlight

Create vibrant, contrasting prints of white on cobalt blue paper and cloth backgrounds using photosensitive solutions. Cyanotyping (or “blueprinting”) is a practice that’s 180 years old. We layer objects on top of our pre-prepared background material and expose the stack of materials to sunlight. Your print will develop before your eyes, leaving impressions of your composition behind. We’ll have the opportunity to do many experiments so that you can play with different materials and exposure methods to produce different outcomes, whether that be ghostly transparencies or sharp outlines. All materials provided. Please feel free to bring any small objects you’d like to print with, such as lace, feathers, pressed or fresh leaves and plants, glass objects, buttons, etc. to make a unique composition. Transparent or semi-transparent objects are especially fun to experiment with! Peninsula Park Picnic Area A Instructor: Molly Donaldson W 6/1 1:00-3:00pm $10 1143891

Leatherwork: Getting Started

Make two simple, hand-stitched leather items from scratch in this beginner workshop. We’ll start by creating a cardholder together, tracing and cutting leather from a pattern, using a chisel and awl, and learning basic saddle-stitching with two needles. Then, you’ll select a second project to get started on- a pouch or clutch. We will work with natural materials in this class, including leather that is “veg-tanned” by a centuries-old method that uses plant tannins and natural oils. It has a stiff structure, making it easy to sew by hand, and it will acquire a rich, natural patina over time. We’ll apply beeswax to the edges of our products and burnish them by hand to achieve a finished look. Try your hand with a variety of tools including skivers, stitch groovers, chisels, mallets, punches, and edge finishing tools to decide what suits you best. All materials provided.

In the wake of social unrest and national reflection that followed the murder of George Floyd in 2020, the Black Lives Matter Artist Grant program was established to support new or recent artwork reflecting on social justice efforts in response to systemic racism. Artists are selected based on their demonstrated commitment to social justice. Portland Art Historian Ella Ray writes about this exhibition, “While a single object cannot change the course of our present-tense, artists often act as our record keepers, illustrators, documentarians, and architects, making clear to us who we are, where we are, and ultimately, where we are headed. Whether we like it or not.” We have an incredible opportunity to explore this powerful exhibit with the Museum Director of the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art at Portland State University. After our group tour, stay to further explore the museum and another powerful, multidisciplinary exhibit that’s a meditation on authenticity and representation: To Survive on This Shore: Photographs and Interviews with Transgender and Gender Nonconforming Older Adults.

Columbia Slough Stewardship

The Columbia Slough is a vast system of rivers and land around a main, 19-mile channel that runs parallel to the Columbia River between the Sandy and the Willamette Rivers.

Get your hands dirty, pausing for bird and other wildlife sightings as we work and learn. We’re invited to be as active as we’d like and there are many different tasks to do: pulling ivy, clearing blackberry vines, mulching, etc. All tools and materials will be provided, including binoculars for bird and other wildlife sightings.

Eco-roofs, Bioswales and Green Walls Tour

Adding soil, plants and drainage layers to a building, whether that be by way of a living wall or a rooftop, helps to reduce the “heat islands” that are created in our built environments. Sunlight is absorbed by plants and buildings stay cooler in summer and more insulated in winter. These features are also beautiful to look at and they create habitat of native plants that benefit pollinators like bees and hummingbirds. We’ll tour with a city of Portland engineer, viewing examples of a green wall and eco-roof as well as bioswales and other plantings that help to mitigate storm water runoff. Once you know what to look for, you’ll spot these structures all over town and you’ll start to see potential everywhere! Activity Notes: Be prepared for a half mile of walking at a leisurely pace. We will make several stops. This route will be on paved surfaces and is accessible to mobility devices including walkers, wheelchairs and motorized scooters.
