News Release

Clackamas County Children’s Commission Announces Grand Opening Of Mayer Arts Early Childhood Center - 11/21/25

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Lake Oswego, OR, November 21, 2025 – Clackamas County Children’s Commission (ClackCoKids) is thrilled to announce the Grand Opening Ceremony for the Mayer Art Early Childhood Center on Wednesday, November 26, at 12:30 PM. The celebration will take place at 3055 S. Furman Dr., Lake Oswego, OR 97034 on the historic Marylhurst Campus.

 

Join us for a ribbon cutting, campus tour, and light snacks and refreshments as we celebrate this exciting expansion of our Clackamas County locations.

 

The Marylhurst Campus currently houses our Central Kitchen and Administrative Offices, and we are proud to expand our presence with a new early childhood center featuring five classrooms, two playgrounds, and a dedicated community partner space. This new facility will serve as a hub for collaboration, supporting stronger parenting and reunification efforts and providing a welcoming space for partners to meet and work together.

 

Quote from Executive Director Darcee Kilsdonk:

"I feel honored by the generosity of the Oregon Legislature and the Office of Head Start for their willingness to help us serve more children and families in our community. I am especially grateful for the support we received from our community partners as well as Senate President Robert Wagner, Representative Daniel Nguyen, Senator Mark Meek, and the Region 10 Office of Head Start. Their assistance enables us to continue our publicly funded services and efforts to eliminate poverty and address the childcare desert in Clackamas County."
