During the 2011 International Stonework Symposium in mid-January 2011, we visited the wonderful Art City Studios: An Art Lover’s Paradise in Ventura that was created by Paul Lindhard so that we could see the stone work and many pieces of raw stone. On their web site, Art City Studios is described as: “Art City hosts over 20 professional sculptors, who make beautiful desktop pieces to monumental sculptures and fountains. They share common facilities and each other’s knowledge.”
Below are photographs of our tour at Art City Studios, although we only photographed parts of what’s available; and there is a lot more to see. Art City Studios is well worth a visit when you spend time in Ventura. (Photographs by Peggy B. & Pat Perazzo)
