What begins now began in
1928.
A creative sanctuary in the redwoods—where stories are planted, beauty takes root, and culture grows in communion.


We don’t just host events—
we hold space.
Chez Serendip is a 6-acre creative sanctuary in the Santa Cruz Mountains, where artists, healers, builders, and dreamers gather to co-create a more beautiful world. Once a 1928 homestead, now a living cultural commons, the land is being reimagined as a site for artist residencies, wellness retreats, fireside salons, and immersive events.
We are building a place where beauty is a strategy. Story is ceremony. And community is the medium.
Experiences & Invitations
Chez Serendip is more than a venue—it’s a living canvas where art, nature, and community meet. Every offering is an invitation to slow down, connect deeply, and become part of the unfolding story of this place.
