A Story Rich Space for Transformational Learning and Playful Immersion

The Saunders Room is....

The Saunders Room is a lovingly curated workshop and gathering space in downtown Corvallis. We host transformational learning and joyful play — through creativity-forward events, workshops, salons, and immersive storytelling experiences. We’re also a cooperative home base for facilitators who believe in community over competition.

What We Mean by Story Rich

The Saunders Room is what we call a story-rich space — where everything, from the furnishings to the food to the conversations, feels like part of something unfolding.

It’s not just about what’s taught or played. It’s about experiences with layers — of meaning, memory, and magic.

From vintage books and handcrafted details to immersive mystery nights and reflective workshops, our space invites you to step into something intentional.

Something that lingers. Something with heart.

Whether you’re hosting or attending, you’re entering a place where story lives in the walls — and your own story evolves.
