Telsha Anderson

The entrepreneur and owner of t.a. on opening a store in the middle of a pandemic, finding confidence through clothing, and dispensary designs.

AS TOLD TO GOSSAMER

I love being surrounded by a community and by people, which is most likely why I opened a brick and mortar store and not just an e-commerce platform.

I basically live at t.a. It’s our mission and our goal to bring contemporary designers to the forefront of retail. That’s something that I had yet to see on a grand scale, especially in terms of a Black-owned business. I wanted to create a space that was not only inviting in terms of who works here, but also in the clothing that we provide, and the designers and the artists that we hold space for.
