Earth Week

This Earth Week, celebrate where it matters most: in nature! Celebrate Earth Week by exploring boldly, traveling thoughtfully, and reconnecting with the natural spaces that make Portland special. For one week, Washington Park will transform into a park-wide adventure. From wildlife encounters and world-class gardens to museums, forest trails, and playgrounds, Earth Week is your invitation to explore Portland’s premier park in a new way. Look for special Earth Week signage and let it guide you to hands-on activities, conservation moments, and pop-up experiences designed to connect you with the culture, diversity, and wonder of nature. Make your visit green: Earth Week is also about how you get here. Ride TriMet and enjoy a car-free trip to Washington Park. It’s one of the simplest, most impactful ways to reduce your footprint while spending time outdoors. At the zoo join us in entry plaza for a free, educational activity on how to create safe environments for birds, with a special chance to win eco-friendly prizes when you purchase admission. Bird safety window decals will also be available for purchase at the Oregon Zoo gift store.
