As wildfire season approaches, Oregonians must take steps to protect their homes and communities. To help residents prepare, the Oregon Office of State Fire Marshal, in partnership with Portland Fire and Rescue, is hosting a free Wildfire Preparedness Weekend with World Forestry Center at the Discovery Museum on April 27 and 28 from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm.

This free event offers residents a unique opportunity to learn how to reduce the risk of wildfires around their homes and communities and get involved in protecting our state from the threat of wildfires.

Attendees can access expert speakers, interactive exhibits, and hands-on demonstrations.
