Evergreen Aviation Museum, Pittock Mansion are reopening. What about other Oregon attractions?
Updated Feb 26, 2021;
Evergreen Aviation Museum and Pittock Mansion are the latest Oregon attractions to announce they are reopening as Oregon modifies coronavirus risk levels county by county.
Gov. Kate Brown modified coronavirus risk levels for several counties this week, including two of Oregon’s largest. Clackamas and Washington counties will move into the “moderate” risk category as of Friday. Multnomah County’s move earlier this month from “Extreme” to “High Risk” is allowing some attractions and museums to reopen under reduced capacity.
