APRIL 2021 Update:
The Shelter Cove Arts and Recreation Foundation (SCARF) wants to share some of its projects and plans as things begin to open up from COVID restrictions.
Plans are underway to have as many as five Art Gallery Receptions beginning perhaps in May.
The first one is scheduled for Saturday, May 8th from 4:00 - 7:00 pm at the Inn of the Lost Coast.
The gallery will be showing an almost brand new display of art. Many new artists have recently joined the gallery and their works will be on display too.
Everyone is welcome - masks and social distancing are required.
NOTE: Future schedules may need to be adjusted, depending upon local and state mandates.
SCARF continues to work with the Bureau of Land Management on our joint Artist In Residence Program. Details are being developed for one or more events this summer or early fall. Watch for more information about this in future announcements.
Another Art Project is also being planned with SCARF and the BLM to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the King Range.
SCARF and Linda Franklin are going to host the annual Labor of Love Quilt Show this coming Labor Day. Due to uncertainty over COVID restrictions that might be in place in September, we are planning on a socially distant outdoor display of Quilts this year. As restrictions change, we may be able to expand the show.

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've been unable to host the event in 2020, however hope to be able to initiate another series in 2021.
Each year, we offer several children and adult workshops, including photography, electronic kit building, cooking, tile mosaic, and a Labor of Love Quilt show.
