Join homeschoolers from throughout the state for a special night – created just for homeschoolers!DATE: Saturday, April 4, June , 2020
TIME: 7:30-10:30pm
PRICE: $30 per person pre-registration through midnight April 3rd; $40 per person day of the event. All participants must pre-register.

Each attendee needs to purchase a separate ticket.
WHERE: Multnomah Arts Center, 7688 SW Capital Highway in Portland
WHO: The Homeschool Prom is for homeschoolers 14 years old through high school age. Dates are not required. If you do bring a date, your date does not have to be a homeschooler (but still at least 14 years old). One person in a “couple” needs to be a homeschooler. Bring your friend, or a date, and have the night of your life surrounded by homeschoolers from throughout Oregon & southern Washington. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. You can email OHEN at events@www.ohen.org
Note: OHEN considers the “homeschool” community to include traditional homeschoolers, part-time homeschoolers, unschoolers, virtual charter school attendees, and any other type of learner whose education is primarily home-based. In other words, if you consider yourself a homeschooler, we consider you a homeschooler.
MUSIC: A variety of dance music will be provided by DJ Julius Kidding! (All music will be profanity-free.)
THEME:
DRESS: To make this a truly special occasion, dress is formal. (No jeans or t-shirts. Special tennis shoes, e.g. sparkly converse, are okay.)
HINTS: You don’t need to spend hundreds of dollars on a prom dress or a new suit. Here are a few ideas:
- Check out sale racks and use department-store coupons
- Visit Nordstrom Rack to find lots of good deals
- Try upscale clothing consignment shops
- Prom attire can be purchased on eBay
- Check out Goodwill and other thrift stores
- Make your own dress
- Borrow a friend’s dress
- For a free prom dress check out Abby’s Closet at www.abbyscloset.org (They collect used prom dresses and give them to those in need at a special event)
PHOTOGRAPHY: There will be a memorable backdrop for you and your date/friends to pose in front of and take pictures with your devices. Each attendee also receives one free instant photo print ticket.
GUIDELINES: To make the dance comfortable and safe for everyone, the following will not be allowed:
- re-entry privileges to the dance
- making out
- inappropriate dancing
- smoking, vaping, or any type of drug/alcohol use in the building or on the building property
