What we aim to solve
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Performing and Visual Arts
During a typical year, the Performing Arts Program offers the community access to some of the most celebrated performers of our time through the indoor Carriage House Theatre Concert Series, outdoor Summer Concert Series (though on hiatus) and Villa Chamber Series, which is held in our Historic Main Hall. Montalvo’s Visual Arts programming includes ongoing exhibitions of cutting-edge work by contemporary artists—many of whom are Montalvo artists-in-residence—and Art on the Grounds, featuring commissioned site-specific works that respond to Montalvo’s natural landscape and explore the role of nature in contemporary culture. Due to the pandemic, we're primarily presenting virtual material but look forward to reopening again when it is safe to do so.
Education Program
During a typical year, Montalvo's Education Program provides 15,000+ children and their educators with high-quality and impactful arts-based education offerings at Montalvo and in the schools. Through cross-discipline arts-centered practice and a collaborative approach, we are working to shape the educational landscape of Silicon Valley to foster critical thinking, communication, collaboration, creativity and global citizenship. Our comprehensive education offerings bring enriching and engaging arts-learning experiences to thousands of students and offer illuminating resources and professional development for educators. We also offer a variety of classes and workshops in various artistic disciplines to adults as well throughout the year. This past year we've temporarily shifted to an online format, giving children, adults and teachers readily accessible materials to enhance their creative learning experience, both through online classes and virtual events. Our summer camps have remained an in-person experience for children, observing all appropriate health mandates.
Lucas Artist Residency Program
Each year, Montalvo’s Lucas Artists Residency Program serves exceptional artists from around the world, providing them time for solitary creation, interaction with fellow residents, and meaningful opportunities for engagement through public programming. Established in 1939, it is the third oldest artist residency program in the United States. The unique environment is conducive to both individual practice and the energetic exchange of ideas among culturally diverse fellows. During their time at Montalvo, residents work on projects; generate ideas; engage in creative thought and discussion with each other and in critical reflection on the world around us; develop collaborations; and advance their art and scholarship in myriad ways. This year, due to the pandemic, Montalvo has had to shutter its residency doors. In spite of this, we have maintained our firm commitment to artists and have leveraged online platforms to engage in conversation with practicing artists globally, while presenting thoughtful arts installations in and around our community that address current social issues.
