Your Guide to Dance, Theatre & Music for Kids and Teens in the Gorge
February 5, 2026
One of our goals at Gorge Youth is to help families see all the options for different activities available to kids and teens in the Columbia Gorge — all in one place, in plain language, and from a youth perspective. For this post, we invited a local high school student who is involved in theatre and dance to share what she knows about the performing arts landscape here. Below is her take on some of the dance, theatre, and music opportunities available in our community, along with a snapshot of additional programs offered. Whether your child is just beginning to explore the arts or already loves to perform, we hope this guide helps you discover something new — and reminds you how much creativity is growing right here in the Gorge.
