Barnsdall Art Park

Barnsdall Art Park is a city park located in the East Hollywood district of Los Angeles, California. 〔( Barnsdall.org: Barnsdall Art Park )〕 〔(City of Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks: Barnsdall Art Park )〕 Parking and arts buildings access is from Hollywood Boulevard on the park's north side. 〔(Barnsdall Art Park.com: Directions )〕 The park is a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument, and a facility of the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs. 〔(City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs )〕
The mission of the arts center is to present, promote, enrich, and develop the arts and artists of the Los Angeles region, inclusive of the city's notable cultural diversity. This continues the intentions of Aline Barnsdall, who donated Barnsdall Park to the City of Los Angeles for arts and recreational purposes, including the preservation of the historic architecture and landscape features. Located at the crest of Olive Hill, Barnsdall Art Park overlooks the city of Los Angeles, and the Hollywood Hills, including Griffith Park. The park is centered on the Barnsdall's Hollyhock House designed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright, a National Historic Landmark, Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument, and on the National Register of Historic Places in Los Angeles.
==History==
Aline Barnsdall, a native of Bradford, Pennsylvania and heiress to an oil fortune, was led by her interest in the future of the American stage to Chicago, Illinois, where she co-directed an experimental theatre company. While in Chicago, she met the equally unconventional Frank Lloyd Wright, whose recently completed Midway Gardens she admired.
A trip to California turned Barnsdall's attention to Los Angeles. In 1915 she commissioned Wright to help her develop an innovative theatrical community on the nation's western cultural frontier. Selecting a thirty-six acre site in East Hollywood known as Olive Hill, Barnsdall and Wright worked together to develop a plan that included a home for Barnsdall and her young daughter, two secondary residences, a theater, a director's house, a dormitory for actors, studios for artists, shops, and a motion picture theater. The site plan was based on the gridded spacing of the existing olive grove’s 1225 trees.
