Charles Durrett, a leading architect in the field of sustainable community design and cohousing, will be hosting a free public presentation on the future of this innovative housing concept, with a focus on the potential for a new cohousing community in Ramona. The event is open to the public and will take place on March 16 at 6 p.m. It will be held at the Ramona Community Center, 434 Aqua Lane in Ramona, California. Cohousing communities are custom neighborhoods that combine full, yet efficiently, designed private homes with extensive community facilities. This results in some of the most socially and environmentally sustainable neighborhoods in North America to date. The future residents are involved from the beginning of the project, acting as co-developer and co-designer, so the houses and the community, as a whole, ultimately reflect their real needs and priorities of the future residents, not those of a typical developer. Cohousing is designed to reflect the real needs, wants, and desires of the future residents in order to make their lives more economical, more practical, more social, more convenient, more healthy, more safe, more interesting, and more fun. Too many seniors need to move out of town when their house no longer fits them and too many kids who grew up in town can’t afford to move back when they are ready to start a family. Cohousing addresses these problems in the most healthful way possible. We’d like as many of the future residents as possible to be from Ramona. Charles Durrett, architect, author and advocate for affordable, socially responsible and sustainable design, has designed over 55 successful cohousing communities in California and North America including the one where he lives in Nevada City, CA. His work has been featured in Time magazine, New York Times, LA Times, San Francisco Chronicle, The Washington Post, Architecture, Architectural Record, Wall Street Journal, the Economist, and a wide variety of other publications.

From the museum: A one-of-a-kind exhibition, O’Keeffe and Moore compares the work of two iconic modernists: American painter Georgia O’Keeffe and British sculptor Henry Moore. While these artists worked on different continents, their careers and contributions to the artistic development of the 20th century reveal many parallels. While Georgia O’Keeffe was holding up a small pelvic bone of a gray fox against the New Mexico sky, framing the landscape and imagining the curve of the bone on a vast scale, Henry Moore, eleven years her junior and half way around the world, was also holding up small bones, maquettes, and other objects against the sky, imagining them any size and peering through their apertures to the open landscape and sheep fields of Hertfordshire. The two artists pioneered and shared a coherent vision and approach to Modernism. While other Modernist artists also used natural forms as a pathway to abstraction, no other artists apart from O’Keeffe and Moore centered their art on this fundamental aspect, and amassed such great collections over their lifetimes of animal skulls and bones, gnarled tree roots and twisted driftwood, smooth and hollowed river and flint stones, internal coils of seashells and interlocking pebbles. This exhibition unites the work of these artists for the first time, and re-creates their studios in the Museum with their original contents of found objects, tools, and furnishings. Visitors will be able to explore their working practices, and see how these humble objects inspired some of their most important artistic creations. Over 100 paintings and sculptures trace their artistic development, exploring Surrealist concepts such as the pairing of objects and metamorphosis, as well as their investigations of bones, stones, internal/external forms of flowers and seashells, and landscape. Before settling permanently in New Mexico, O’Keeffe collected animal skulls she found during visits to the Southwest, bringing them back with her to New York to study and paint. Meanwhile, Moore referred to his maquette studio as his “library of natural forms” and drew from its vast resources daily, fusing the shapes of the human figure in plaster and terra cotta with those of the natural world, and questioning our relationship with the environment. He mused “The value of certain types of modern sculpture may be that it opens people’s eyes to nature, that they pick up things which they wouldn’t look at otherwise; and they look at things with a new eye.” The sentiment is echoed in the reminiscences of O’Keeffe: “I have picked flowers where I found them. I have picked up sea shells and rocks and pieces of wood where there were sea shells and rocks and pieces of wood that I liked…I have used these things to say what is to me the wideness and wonder of the world as I live in it.” Learn more here.
