Artist in Residence Program
Using examples of other Artists in Residence programs around the country, such as the Socrates Sculpture Park in Long Island City, NY.; we plan to develop a program where Artists of various disciplines who already engage in sustainable art, can create and teach.

Why this Area is so special:
Topanga Canyon has always a special ability to inspire artists and innovators alike. This particular area was an artists enclave from the early 1900’s until 2000.
Artists and soul-searchers have been drawing inspiration from this space since it was a sacred Chumash indian site.
We would like to work in conjunction with State Parks and the stakeholders of this area to insure that a positive, creative and innovate environment is available for all to experience and enjoy.
