Wonderworks Children’s Museum of the Gorge has been entertaining, educating, and connecting families in the region since 1977. Many families see us as their “life saver” – a hub of stimulating, affordable activities for all ages including active participation in community events for families and classes in music, art, cooking, parenting and gardening.

We are a true grassroots organization: created, operated, and sustained by volunteers in the community for over 30 years. We are excited to have become the new owners of our building, located in historic downtown The Dalles. Come visit us!
