The TEAL Artist Coop will opens its seasonal store on Oct. 31 at 328 SW 2nd St. in downtown Corvallis. Every October, the team of artists transforms an otherwise vacant storefront into a gallery offering unique gifts, hand-made in the Willamette Valley. The store will be open through Dec. 28.
This year, 21 artists are participating in TEAL, and the gallery—staffed by the artists—will sell fine works of fiber, leather, glass, wood, mixed media and paper, as well as ceramics, jewelry and paintings.
TEAL makes a charitable donation earmarked for art education from a portion of its annual gallery proceeds. This year’s recipient will be Mountain View Elementary School in Corvallis.
