Hallie Ford is Oregon’s third-largest fine-arts museum and has more than 9,000 works on public display, including Native American ceremonial masks and works by Pacific Northwest artists, as well as special exhibits ranging from classical works to provocative modern pieces.
In the nearby historic Bush’s Pasture Park, the Bush Barn Art Center exhibits brow-raising fine art from local, regional and international artists. Here, the Salem Art Association hosts four onsite galleries that are free to the public and worth a visit. One recent exhibit, “Reenvisioned: Contemporary Portraits of our Black Ancestors” by Portland artist, Jeremy Okai Davis, is a series of large portraits that tell the story of early Black pioneers in Oregon.

In the historic town of Independence, pop into River Gallery on Main Street and get your fill of fascinating works by local painters, ceramicists, wood workers, jewelry-makers and mixed-media artists.

The Salem Philharmonia Orchestra is a community symphony that makes symphonic music accessible to everyone.

IMMERSE YOURSELF IN LIVE PERFORMANCE
The Gothic architecture of the 99-year-old Elsinore Theatre in downtown Salem is inspiring in itself, but the real magic happens onstage. Renowned for acoustics you can feel in your bones, the 1,290-seat Elsinore hosts rock concerts, the Oregon ballet, comedy and Broadway shows, live theater and more. The stained-glass windows and Mighty Wurlitzer organ only add to your experience.
