Meet us in Berkeley, CA for a three-night stay at the extraordinary 5-star Claremont Hotel (below) and join other Arts and Crafts enthusiasts for a multifaceted exploration of the rich and abundant art, craft, and architectural traditions of this remarkable region.

Experience many of the church’s original furnishings, including its iconic chairs, which are still in use today.

Visit three exquisite and distinct California Arts and Crafts private homes, each with incomparable collections, and each approached, inside and out, with extraordinary focus on every detail. Discover the rich history of the Hillside Club. This still active social club was founded in the late 19th century to promote good design practices in the Berkeley hills.
