Art in Three Rivers

Living a Creative Life in the Sierra-Nevada foothills near Sequoia National Park

Three Rivers, California, has had a reputation as an "artists colony" for over sixty years. Many creative artists live and work in this Sierra-Nevada foothill village, settled along the Kaweah River Watershed. Three Rivers is located halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco, thirty miles east of Visalia on Highway 198 along the Kaweah River.

Artists' Studio Tour

Three Rivers Artists' STUDIO TOUR 9 will be held on March 19-20-21 in 2010. For details go to More ART Links and use Studio Tour tab.
