Scheduled in conjunction with Headlands’ three Artists in Residence seasons, Open House at Headlands Center for the Arts take place on three Sundays each year and are a great way to explore the center, meet the artists in the Affiliate, Artist in Residence, Graduate Fellowship, and Tournesol Award programs and see the works in progress in their respective studios amid the natural beauty of the Marin Headlands.

The particular Open House that took place on Sunday April 13 featured a robust schedule throughout the day that included readings, performances, screenings, and guided walks.Two buildings, 960 and 945 singularly hosted the Open Studios, while Building 944 predominantly housed the performances, readings, and film screenings. Whether visitors solitarily roamed the historic buildings of the campus or actively engaged with participating artists in their studios and watched the dance and performances, curated happenings, and events throughout the day, this special event at Headlands connected visitors to the center, revealed its importance, and fostered relationships between the general public and artists through the creative process.
