Malibu Events Calendar

Sponsored by the Allied Artists of the Santa Monica Mountains and Seashore

Topanga State Park

20825 Entrada Road, Topanga, CA  90290.

We meet on the second Saturday of the month from 9AM to 1PM at different locations throughout the Santa Monica Mountains and beaches. We start with a short painting demonstration by a featured Allied Artists member.  At noon you may to choose to participate in a friendly and positive group critique or continue painting.  There will not be a critique when Allied Artists have their Board Meetings. Bring your own art supplies, water, lunch, sunscreen and repellent, hat and walking shoes.  We meet in the parking area, except when indicated.  Rain cancels the paint-out.  See our website allied-artists.com

Located in the cliffs and canyons of the Santa Monica Mountains, Topanga State Park features 36 miles of trails through open grassland, live oaks and spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean. This sprawling park offers plenty to paint: secluded trails, green meadows in spring bloom, mountain vistas and the occasional deer sighting. Painting demonstration at 9AM by oil painter Elena Roche. Friendly critique at noon.

From Pacific Coast Highway, travel north on Topanga Canyon Boulevard, pass the post office at the center of “town,” then turn right on Entrada Road. Keep to the left at every opportunity until you reach the park’s main parking lot (about one mile).

From the Ventura Freeway (101), exit at Topanga Canyon Boulevard, drive south over the crest of the mountains and proceed three miles to Entrada Road and turn left.

Facilities. Parking entrance fee $3/hr, $12 all day.
