The Tillamook Coast is home to more than 300 artists who make their living writing, painting, performing, photographing, stone-cutting, and glass-blowing.
With pop up art shows, Art Accelerated provides a market for local artists through many avenues. Events and activities for all ages are offered.
Inside what was once a one-room school house in Neskowin, this art gallery has been attracting visitors for 39 years. With the original owner and artist still on hand to greet visitors, stop by and admire watercolors, acrylics, and mixed water media pieces inspired from worldly travels.

NCRD Performing Arts Center (Nehalem)
Being on vacation doesn’t mean you have to miss your trip to the gym. Plus, while visiting Nehalem you can walk through an art gallery, and catch a show, after you pump some iron.
Set in a beautiful historic building at the top of the hill in Nehalem, the North County Recreation District [NCRD] has a swimming pool, exercise center, and a newly remodeled theatre. The NCRD offers drop-in daycare during the summer months and boasts an art, science, and theatre camp every summer. Year-round art shows and musical performances, such as Winterfest make the NCRD a cultural hotspot.
