Located on 175 acres in Saratoga, the Montalvo Arts Center includes a historic villa, eleven artist residences, indoor and outdoor performance and exhibition venues, lush gardens, and hiking trails that wind through redwood forests. Outdoor access is available in partnership with the County Parks and Recreation Department which leases and manages the trails and parking lots for public use. County historical heritage funding has supported the exterior rehabilitation of the historic villa doors and iron lanterns. Supervisor Simitian championed expanded community access to Montalvo Arts Center and an increased focus on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging.
