Welcome to sidewalk time-travel with live storytelling about:

🌊 the earth-shattering event that made this valley ridiculously fertile
🧱 why there are so many brick buildings (and who paid for them)
⌛ the real reason so many downtown businesses have closed this decade

You’ll walk less than a mile, but cover centuries of wild, human, unbelievable stories.

Can you really call yourself a local if you don’t know how things came to be?

🎟️ Mon June 8th, 5:30
📍 Starts at Courtyard Marriott (1st & Adams)

This 45 minute, free tour is different every month and happens on the 1st Friday - same day as downtown Friday Lights! Each month Engage Corvallis unveils a sneak preview of research being done for future tours. Think “hot off the notepad” on its way to being hot off the presses.

We launch from the temperature controlled Marriott lobby, connecting you to local stories as we explore an invisible side of downtown Corvallis. You’ll also have an opportunity to engage with fellow learning, story, or history enthusiasts, and make new friends who share your love for exploring our city.

Mark your calendars, and get ready to meet your streets. Come experience a new side of Corvallis and build your local cred with others!

Tickets are free, with an option to support local storykeeping if you have the capacity.

Calling allies, qu**rs, any anyone curious enough to be open to hearing about how, for 120+ years, q***r folks locally have been quietly (and not-so-quietly) shaping the streets you walk every day.

Hidden stories. Bold lives. Local legends whose legacies you pass without even knowing.

Think Corvallis is straight-laced? Think again!

Last chance this season! Go from wild flood stories and gold rush chaos into a behind-the-scenes look at Corvallis’ oldest brewery.

✨ Hear how locals made it through prohibition.
✨ See one of the last gravity-fed breweries in the U.S.
✨ Sip fresh pours with new friends who love a good story

It’s part history tour, part tasting, and all fun and 🤓. Beer tastes better when you know the backstory.

Grab your people, bring your curiosity (and your ID 😉), and come experience history on tap.
