OPEN ACCESS CONNECTS YOU TO CREATIVITY!

Toast the residency!
Open Access March 27

Join us on Friday, March 27, from 6-9pm in the Lucas Artists Residency Commons and on Montalvo's grounds as we honor the scores of artists who have lived on our beautiful property over the years while creating, connecting, and dreaming.

Our newly-launched series Open Access gives visitors a glimpse inside the residency each month through a series of fun and engaging events that will educate and inspire—and this month's theme is A Toast to the Residency!

So, raise a glass to artists past, see what some of our fellows are doing today, and get a glimpse of works coming in the future! You'll see the painting studios of Nicole Schmölzer and Philip Portughese; get a tour of the new exhibition in the Project Space Gallery, and take a walk to the beautiful Italianate Garden for an early look at an upcoming permanent work by Christopher Loomis: a seating element being carved out of eucalyptus from Montalvo’s property.

This event is presented as part of our 75/10 anniversary, celebrating the inauguration of an artists residency at Montalvo 75 years ago and the 10-year jubilee of the Sally and Don Lucas Artists Program.

Beer, wine, and food will be available for purchase. Tickets are just $10*, so come, meet the artists and mingle with new friends—be sure to invite others to join you via Facebook! To purchase, click below or call the Box Office at 408-961-5858 10am-4pm Monday-Friday.
 

Alfredo Rodriguez
tomorrow night!

The time has come to pick up your last minute tickets to see Cuban pianist Alfredo Rodriguez in the intimate Carriage House Theatre! Limited tickets still remain to his performance this Friday night at 8pm, and if you love modern jazz, you don't want to miss out.

Rodriguez, described by presenter Quincy Jones as "one of the most gifted and prolific jazz pianists of the 21st century," emigrated to the U.S. in 2009 and has been wowing audiences ever since with his immense talent, unique vision, and captivating stage presence. His latest album The Invasion Parade explores memories of his homeland, including the people and culture he left behind.

Tickets start at just $35; purchase by clicking the button below or calling the Box Office at 408-961-5858. Very limited ticket quantities will also be available at the door.
