Sidewalk Secrets Season Tickets

Sidewalk Secrets is a seven-week tour series taking place in Downtown Corvallis on Tuesdays from 4:30 to 5:30 starting April 21st and ending June 2nd.

We'll walk the sidewalks of downtown to unearth clues about how rivers, floods, timber, people, politics, movements, and memory converged to form our city. Each week reveals another layer: forgotten histories, civic flashpoints, unlikely changemakers, and local legends that shaped our town. The changing themes of each session blend history, local knowledge, cultural insight, and the big and small civic decisions that continue to impact us today.

Bring your curiosity to trace the stories that linger beneath our feet and learn how the past continues to guide Corvallis’ future.
