  • Submit images representing the entire body of work you wish to sell at TEAL. It helps the jury to see an image of a grouping of your work or a ‘booth’ shot that shows your display.

  • Also attach a thumbnail sheet (pdf, word, pages) with retail pricing, size, media and descriptions.

  • We accept digital images only in JPG format; no Powerpoint, URL or other digital files. Please do not send slides or your original artwork in the mail.

Application Form

Standards of craftsmanship.

  • Work should demonstrate the artist's individuality, imagination and skill with the chosen medium. Objects made from kits, molds or commercial plans or patterns are not accepted.

  • Artwork must be created and manufactured by the artist.

  • Generally, TEAL chooses new artists whose work complements current members' work.

  • If an artist’s medium changes from the work originally juried, the new work must be juried before being offered in the gallery.

Membership requirements.

To be a member of TEAL, artists must be residents of the Willamette Valley in close enough proximity to our gallery to be able to work store shifts—an approximate 50-mile radius around Corvallis. Each member is required to serve on a committee, attend annual meetings and work in the gallery during the 2-month selling season.

Our goal is to keep a balance of media in the gallery and to have enough members to fill a niche in the group. Our member artists are required to:

  • Be accepted by our jury.

  • Work six to eight 8-hour gallery shifts during selling season (November and December).

  • Participate on one committee—showroom, promotions or operations—for four to five days during the year.

  • Pay a yearly deposit of $200 by July 1.

  • Serve on the Board of Directors once every five years.

  • Attend annual meetings and gallery receptions.

Membership benefits.

  • Gallery setting with low overhead cost.

  • Low commission on sales (averaging 15-20%).

  • Established, successful business with repeat customer base.

  • Camaraderie with other artists.

  • Yearly presence at the Corvallis Fall Festival.

  • Environment to learn and grow with other art and craft professionals.
