City of Hillsboro, OR
Home MenuCultural Arts District
“Cultural districts are defined as well-recognized, labeled areas of a city in which a high concentration of cultural facilities and programs serve as the main anchor of attraction.”
– Americans for the Arts
Hillsboro celebrates the power of arts and culture to drive economic prosperity, strengthen community connection and equity, preserve our cultural assets, and welcome residents and visitors to experience our vital City. Our Downtown Cultural Arts District is anchored by the three cultural hubs of Main Street and the Avenues, Shute Park and Avenida Diez/10th Avenue, and M&M Marketplace.
We invite you to see a play or concert. Take a creative class. Discover locally owned boutiques, restaurants, and food carts. Experience events like the Hillsboro Art Walk, El Sol Festival, and Holly Days Celebration. Bring friends and family— or meet new friends and neighbors — and create lasting memories in Hillsboro.
