SEE EVENT DETAILS

(see times)
In 1924, writer and lawyer C.E.S. Wood and poet and suffragist Sara Bard Field built an estate in the hills above Los Gatos. This now 75-acre estate, dubbed "the Cats" after the 8-foot cat sculptures that graced the front entrance, served as a creative retreat and home for Wood and Field until the mid-1950s. American Bohemia explores the storied lives of Wood and Field, acclaimed literary figures and intellectuals, and their home, which became a gathering place for some of America's most significant artists and writers including Robinson Jeffers, Ansel Adams, John Steinbeck, Ralph Stackpole, and Lincoln Steffens.
The exhibit will include home movies of C.E.S. Wood, Sara Bard Field and their families at the Cats Estate ,artifacts, books, and letters from the Cats Estate and Wood Family and rarely seen photographs of the Cats Estate.
Life in California is a salon-style evening of conversation, food, and drink with scholars of the lives of Sara Bard Field and C.E.S. Wood and their time in California.
