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.

Back in 2006 Shedd veteran Shirley Andress approached us with a proposal “I would like to put an a real Christmas show. I’m tired of dancing Santas and silly reindeer. We can have fun, sure. But we also should have the history, the heart, the spirit, and the sacredness, love and wisdom of what Christmas is all about.” We all have been blessed with Shirley's vision for 19 years…and we’re honored to invite you to join us once again as Shirley and company bring to us the 20th.
