Free events in Hillsboro, OR

A recurring Third Monday cleanup brings people together to care for Downtown Hillsboro by picking up litter and removing graffiti. Participants are encouraged to dress for any weather, wear sturdy walking shoes, and bring water. Check in at First Congregational Church, where SOLVE signs mark the meeting spot. Free parking is available in the lot just south of the church in any unmarked space, and the group gathers by the breezeway.

Hands-on Volunteer Work Parties with the Downtown Hive offer a way to get involved in the Downtown Hillsboro community. Each month brings a new set of projects, from helping at downtown events to tidying and painting spaces or offering support to new businesses. Many tasks are active and can include moving around and occasional lifting, while desk-based roles are also available for those who prefer seated work. Participants can connect with neighbors, lend a hand, and see positive changes take shape across downtown.

Experience compact, tactical Age of Sigmar battles in a monthly Spearhead league that provides consistent opportunities to play. Participants can complete up to one game each week, with victory points tallied across the month. Hobby progress counts toward the standings as well, awarding 10 victory points for every unit from a Spearhead that is built and painted during the month. The highest total at the end of the month earns a spot on the Wall of Honor. There is no fee to take part, and weekly games can be played during regular Sigmar Saturday or the Saturday League Night dedicated to these matchups. Players will need a Spearhead force along with one of the current Spearhead sets, choosing from Fire & Jade, Sand & Bone, or City of Ash. Staff at the shop can help with questions and getting started.
