Built in partnership with the Chinook Indian Nation, Portland State University, The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, and numerous other community partners and volunteers, the Cathlapotle Plankhouse serves as an education and interpretive center and is used by the Chinook Indian Nation for cultural events throughout the year. Visit the Cathlapotle Plankhouse and connect with local indigenous culture. This Living Plankhouse, based on the Chinookan village of Cathlapotle, as well as the objects inside of it, offer a tangible link to these aboriginal land stewards and provides a unique site for the interpretation of our region's natural and cultural heritage.

The Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1965 to provide wintering habitat for the dusky subspecies of the Canada goose. Today, the Refuge preserves both habitat for wildlife, and evidence of the people who once lived here. The approximately 5,300 acres contain a lush mixture of wetlands, grasslands, riparian corridors, and forests. These habitats, combined with a mild and rainy winter climate, provide the ideal environment for many species including neotropical song birds, wintering waterfowl, and other local native species. The Carty Unit (28908 NW Main Ave) and River 'S' Unit (1071 S Hilhurst) are available for the public to visit. The Carty Unit hosts the main Refuge office, the Cathlapotle Plankhouse, the Oaks-to-Wetlands Trail, and the seasonal Carty Lake Trail. The River 'S' Unit offers the Auto Tour Route and the seasonal Kiwa Trail, as well as access to the hunt zones. Check the website for closure information before you visit!

The Ridgefield Multicultural Festival is always on the first Saturday of the month and is a part of Ridgefield First Saturdays. It takes place in historic downtown Ridgefield, is free to everyone, and includes talented cultural musicians, dancers, community groups, vendors, food carts, and more. What makes this year special is a pop-up museum that will take place in late August at the Greely Building on the weekends leading up to the festival. This museum is a collaboration of many Ridgefield clubs, non-profits, and organizations that are coming together to tell the history and story of Ridgefield.
