ABOUT US:
For over 75 years Zorthian Ranch has existed as a haven for artists and intellectuals. Fifteen minutes from downtown Los Angeles and bordering the Angeles National Forest, its forty-two acres are a convenient respite from city life. A dynamic Art, Music, Environmental and Education venue, it harnesses the natural landscape to inspire, educate, and engage the community. As we rebuild in the aftermath of the EATON FIRE, we offer concerts, events, classes and film location shooting.
