The Tumwater Ballroom has been honored to serve our community for more than a decade, offering affordable, thoughtfully curated events delivered with personal care by our ownership team. Our mission has always been simple: to provide a welcoming, inclusive space where people can gather, celebrate, and connect.
Due to differences in direction and priorities with the management and Board of the Clackamas County Historical Society, our operations at the Museum of the Oregon Territory have concluded. The third-floor event space is now being managed by a different corporate organization.
While the Tumwater Ballroom is no longer available at this location, our commitment to exceptional service has not changed. We invite you to visit us at our new venue, where you will continue to experience the same hospitality, cuisine, bar services, and genuine care that have always defined our work.
We are deeply grateful to our clients, partners, and community for your trust and support over the years, and we look forward to welcoming you in our next chapter.
