Mayor Eric Garcetti Welcomes the Public to Frank Lloyd Wrights famed Hollyhock House

Hollyhock House, a historic landmark, is the first house that Frank Lloyd Wright himself designed in Los Angeles. This masterpiece lives in Barnsdall Art Park, in the proximity of Hollywood and Los Feliz. The theme of the house was the hollyhock flower, which was oil heiress Aline Barnsdalls favorite. She commissioned Frank Lloyd Wright in the 1920s to build the house on this 36-acre hilltop site. The City of Los Angeles now owns the property, and after much renovations throughout the years, they have decided to open it to the public for 24 hours only, starting Februrary 13th. We participated in the opening with Mayor Eric Garcetti, who officiated it by cutting the ribbon with Councilmember Mitch O’Farell. You can take a look at the Full Album HERE.

After the opening, the Hollyhock House will be open Thursdays through Sundays from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
