Hopscoth is an interactive art exhibition that takes guests that utilizes technology to create an immersive experience.
While there are plenty of neat activities to do in Portland, I would recommend Hopscoth if you are looking for something neat and relatively kid friendly. Prior to coming, booked a reservation online to come at a timed slot. Even from the jump, there is a red web of lights at the entrance that already sets the stage for what's to come.
Once checked in, there is a lounge where people can order food/drinks.
Afterwards, you are free to walk around the exhibit with the trail of lights to take you to through the museum. There are impressive wall murals, interactive digital paintings and art displays, a glowing ball pit, and a rainbow maze. If this all sounds confusing, it is okay! In some ways, coming in without knowing quite what you are getting makes the experience all the more fun.
While I did have fun, at my scheduled time on Saturday around 3pm, the place was pretty packed with many kids. So for those who are looking to have a peaceful time walking around enjoying the art, you may want to avoid peak times with kids (aka weekends).
In terms of the time, the hostess did seem pretty flexible with the group ahead of us who came in an hour ahead of their scheduled time. It is also recommended that you wear socks! If not, they will provide you some.
Overall, I thought Hopscoth was worth a visit, but if you are trying to have a date night or enjoy the art in piece, I would try to avoid the weekends.
