Entry Description

Idyllwild Arts Native American Arts Center, built with our sustainable hybrid strategy, is conceived as a place of reflection and discussion. It will welcome Native Americans, students, faculty, administration, neighbors and artists. It provides a place for the traditional transference of knowledge and a continuum of creation and innovation. The 3500 SF Arts Center will house an event facility, offices, an exhibition space and a Resident Artist studio. Its gentle curved form gestures subtly towards the important adjacent meadow, historically a sacred gathering space for local Cahuilla tribes.
