Rockhaven was founded in 1923 as a sanitarium to be run by women for women with mild mental and nervous disorders to give them a chance to recover.
The City of Glendale owns the property and recently received state funding to open the park.
Friends of Rockhaven was formed in 2013 to help make this park a reality. They got the property listed on both the State and National Historic Registries. They are planning to be able to be the ones who operate the museum, and hope to be a strong enough organization to have a say in what happens in the park, and maybe even operate it.
To help raise funds and awareness they are having a Women’s Art Fair at St Luke’s of the Mountains in La Crescenta, and I am thrilled to be part of it.
Join us and enjoy the beautiful rock structure designed in 1924 with ample space in an auditorium and a lovely patio, and shop for a wonderful cause.
