The Columbia River: Wallula to the Sea featuring works by Thomas Jefferson Kitts and Erik Sandgren 

The Columbia River is a significant feature in the regional landscape. It is a companion for those who travel east and west between Astoria, Portland, and the mouth of the Snake River, and it is a destination for countless fishermen, water sports aficionados, and outdoor enthusiasts. The Columbia River: Wallula to the Sea is being organized to celebrate the active and diverse ways in which humans have interacted with the river, its beauty, and its bounty. The interpretive goal of the display is to provide the public with an opportunity to reflect on the many facets of the river’s identity and to visually chronicle some of the human behaviors that shape its daily life—past and present. Within these parameters, we encourage visitors to think critically about the diverse—and sometimes competing—economic enterprises at the forefront of the exhibition. 

Approximately 70 historic and contemporary paintings and photographs showing Middle and Lower Columbia River landscapes, peoples, ideas, and structures are on display, among them 20 works commissioned by prominent Portland-area artists Thomas Jefferson Kitts and Erik Sandgren. The exhibition also contains select examples of regional material culture by Indigenous artists. The works are drawn from the museum’s permanent collection and borrowed from public collections, private collectors, and local artists.

Join us at the 15 Mile Winery tasting room to sample our rarely-open B3 Super Barbera blend, alongside paired Mushroom Risotto Arancini.

Barbera is a delicious varietal, originating in Italy's Piedmont region.

The Northwest, in particular the Columbia Valley AVA (around here!) has taken this grape to a new level of "cult-following" status and has garnered the attention of wine judges around the globe.
Big berry flavors, smooth acidity, jammy aromas, and soft tannins.
Come see what all the fuss is about with this three-vintage blend. Extra aged, extra supple, and extra special.

The Columbia River: Wallula to the Sea featuring works by Thomas Jefferson Kitts and Erik Sandgren 

The Columbia River is a significant feature in the regional landscape. It is a companion for those who travel east and west between Astoria, Portland, and the mouth of the Snake River, and it is a destination for countless fishermen, water sports aficionados, and outdoor enthusiasts. The Columbia River: Wallula to the Sea is being organized to celebrate the active and diverse ways in which humans have interacted with the river, its beauty, and its bounty. The interpretive goal of the display is to provide the public with an opportunity to reflect on the many facets of the river’s identity and to visually chronicle some of the human behaviors that shape its daily life—past and present. Within these parameters, we encourage visitors to think critically about the diverse—and sometimes competing—economic enterprises at the forefront of the exhibition. 

Approximately 70 historic and contemporary paintings and photographs showing Middle and Lower Columbia River landscapes, peoples, ideas, and structures are on display, among them 20 works commissioned by prominent Portland-area artists Thomas Jefferson Kitts and Erik Sandgren. The exhibition also contains select examples of regional material culture by Indigenous artists. The works are drawn from the museum’s permanent collection and borrowed from public collections, private collectors, and local artists.  

Each year the Fort Dalles Museum closes in November to clean house and change exhibits.  We are reopening Monday March 25, 2024  and will be open 10am -5pm  7 days a week 

Admission is $8 for Adults 
                    $5 for seniors over 60
                    $1 for children 7-17
Kids under 7 are free
