About the Headlands Center for the Arts :
« Headlands Center for the Arts provides an unparalleled environment for the creative process and the development of new work and ideas. Through a range of programs for artists and the public, we offer opportunities for reflection, dialogue, and exchange, and build understanding and appreciation for the role of art in society.
The beautiful Headlands campus, a cluster of artist-rehabilitated military buildings just north of the Golden Gate Bridge in the Marin Headlands, is a part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. We host regular public events, including open houses, workshops, nature walks, exhibitions, conversations, and community meals, all designed for meaningful engagement with artmaking and creativity as it happens.
Our artist programs nurture creativity across all disciplines, from the visual arts to performance, music, writing, and film and video, both independently and through collaboration. Through our residency programs, fellowships, and awards, we provide artists with the resources, space, time, and recognition to further their practices and careers, and support the rich and diverse arts ecosystem in the Bay Area, and communities around the world. »
