** August 2022 Updates **
September 3rd - 8th Annual Labor of Love Quilt show
The 2022 Labor of Love Quilt show will be held on Saturday, September 3rd.
Information and entry forms are available on the Labor of Love Quilt Show website.
A new event is planned for this year, with an appliqué class offered on Sunday, September 4th, from 9.30 am - 3:30 pm.
The instructor for the class is Laurel Anderson, and the fee for the class is $35.
Artist in Residence Program
The Shelter Cove Arts and Recreation Foundation and the BLM are moving the second artist in residence program, originally scheduled to begin in late April, to September. We had plenty of qualified applications, but there were administrative issues within BLM that prevented the event from happening until later this year.
New Event - 2022 Painted Mountains Tour
SCARF and BLM are announcing a new event, called the 2022 Painted Mountains Tour. It will include Native American Jazz Trumpeter Delbert Anderson, along with other native Americans who will be performing in the Cove on July 4.
More details will be coming out in the future.
Looking for new Artists
We are always looking for new artists to join the Lost Coast Artists and the Shelter Cove Art Gallery. There is an annual membership fee of $25 to join the groups, and commission for art sold is 25%. If interested, please send your $25 membership to SCARF at 1060 Upper Pacific Drive, Whitethorn, CA 95589 or pay via PayPal here.

Who are We?
The Shelter Cove Arts and Recreation Foundation (SCARF) was established in 2012 with the mission of improving the quality of life in Shelter Cove by offering art and recreational experiences.
We have a volunteer board of directors, and we plan to hold one public meeting a year to gather input relating to arts and recreation in our community.
There are no membership dues. All children's classes are free of charge, and adult classes may include a material fee.
Our Accomplishments
Since our inception, we have developed a softball field, three nature and exercise trails, an Art Gallery, and sponsored the Plein Air at the Lost Coast event for three consecutive years from 2014 - 2016.
In 2019 we partnered with the Bureau of Land Management to sponsor the Artist in Residence Program. During 2019, we hosted three different artists at various times during the year. Due to COVID, we were unable to host the event in 2020 and 2021, however plans are underway for Spring 2022. Click here for more info.
Each year, we offer several children and adult workshops, including photography, electronic kit building, cooking, tile mosaic, and a Labor of Love Quilt show.
