Science is big in Altadena, and long has been.  Richard Feynman, Caltech, JPL--to name the obvious. But how did Altadena become such a home to physics and physicists, and what is that intellectual legacy today? 

Historian David Zierler will walk us through how the forces of nature have grown to comprise a critical force of Altadena's sense of place. 

Join us for the first reveal of upcoming pre-approved plans, designed for the Pacific Palisades.

Zane Grey could be said to have invented the western story. But who was this man, what stirred him, and what was his relationship, really, to Altadena? Hans Allhoff, the Chair of Altadena Heritage and a Zane Grey enthusiast (not a scholar!), will do his best to bring Zane Grey's adventurous life back to life.

Join us for an evening celebrating the power and purpose of creativity. Octaiva's Bookshelf founder and owner Nikki High and author Lynell George ("A Handful of Earth, A Handful of Sky: The World of Octavia E. Butler") will discuss writer, visionary and former Altadena resident, Octavia E. Butler's  creative practice of worldbuilding.  While Butler's wildly influential work in science fiction created more inclusive worlds on the page, her complex  life path and keen prescience have provided compelling inspiration, especially in challenging times.

In 1910 a grand Craftsman-style home was built for realtor G.M. Duntley. By 2025 the building was slated for demolition, but was ultimately saved and relocated from Los Feliz to a fire-ravaged plot in Altadena. The house had been saved once before, by owner Alice Blackburn who threw a huge party in the house the night it moved from East Hollywood to make way for the Hollywood Freeway….

This month’s lecture explores one of Altadena’s most cherished landmarks — Christmas Tree Lane. Mary Landau - Historian Director of the Christmas Tree Lane Association will trace the Lane’s remarkable history, beginning with the original planting of the deodar trees along Santa Rosa Avenue in the early 20th century.
