Welcome to Montalvo Arts Center!

Nestled in the foothills of Silicon Valley, Montalvo Arts Center is 175 acres of pure inspiration. We are a multidisciplinary arts center and nonprofit organization serving the South Bay and beyond with a diverse range of arts, education, and community programs. We are also a public park, open daily from 8am–sunset for visits to our gardens, hiking trails, and outdoor artworks. I hope you’ll come and experience this beautiful place with your family and friends as you hike, explore the gardens, and see our collection of Art on the Grounds.

Summer is here, and we are overjoyed to see so many kids enjoying Montalvo every day as part of our Summer Camp program! We’re also looking forward to hosting our popular Summer Luncheons in July and August, and we are thrilled to bring the community together for a season full of fun programming that will include our 2023 Marcus Exhibition & Festival on the grounds, the return of the family favorite Starry, Starry Night in August, plus some exciting live theatre in our Play on the Grounds series—and a truly unique production of Adventures with Alice at Montalvo coming as summer transitions into fall. It’s going to be a busy season, and we hope you’ll take some time to visit!

Our 2023–2024 Carriage House Performing Arts Series also begins in September, and we are thrilled with this season’s lineup. If you’re a fan of indoor concerts at Montalvo, you’ll be just as thrilled. Take a look at the calendar and buy tickets early if you can—some of these shows are already selling quickly!

While you’re on this site, you can learn about our mission and vision, see all of our upcoming events, and dive into our inspiring Sally and Don Lucas Artists Residency Program. You can join our fantastic community of Montalvo supporters by becoming a donor. 

There’s something for everyone at Montalvo…stART here!
