Golden News Round-Up August 2011

In 2008 the Sam & Adele Golden Foundation began its commitment to providing living and workspace opportunities for artists, with the development of an artist in residence space in a hundred year old barn located on Bell Road, just a 5 minute walk from the GOLDEN facility. On August 20, the Foundation will proudly be opening its doors to the public for a preview of this new artist residency space. Visitors will have a chance to tour the building while enjoying live music from the band, “Caravan of Thieves.”
