Description
Nestled in the Santa Monica foothills, the family-friendly towns of Calabasas and Agoura Hills are among the most desirable places to live in Southern California. Some long-time residents were lured here by the wide-open spaces that welcomed their horses, while many newcomers fled the confines of the city for exclusive, creekside neighborhoods. It’s quiet here, but not too quiet, with plenty of upscale shopping and trendy dining to content erstwhile urbanites. Now this pleasant enclave has one more enviable feature: a Community Center that’s part health club, part "activities central," and part special event facility. Lucky for you, you don’t have to be a resident to enjoy what the Center has to offer.
During normal business hours, both the young and the young-at-heart indulge in a potpourri of fun at the Center, including Swing Salsa lessons, Senior Banquets, belly dancing classes, rock-climbing lessons, and annual events like the Fall Arts & Crafts Fair that bring the locals together. On most weekends, however, you can hold a private celebration here, and in the evenings have the place all to yourself.
Set back against the hills and surrounded by attractive landscaping, the Center is housed in a contemporary building boasting a huge, avant-garde arch over the entryway. Built in 1999, the Center looks new and clean, but you get the feeling it will still look that way in 20 years, because the staff takes great care of the place. The lobby is bright and airy, thanks to the double-tall windows and a vaulted atrium that let in the sunshine, nourishing the potted plantation ferns. Everything here is "quality"— even the vending machine serves fresh-ground Starbuck’s cappuccinos! Party planners and brides find this space so welcoming they often use it for their cocktail hour.
Alternatively, they might enlist colorful balloons or signs to direct arriving guests to the outdoor patio, which runs the length of the Community Room. Banks of African violets, French lavender and native grasses border one side, and several faux brick planters hold graceful saplings decked in twinkle lights. Guests enjoy their champagne and hors d’oeuvres while lounging on teak garden furniture, and when it’s time for the reception they simply walk through a set of doors that open right into the Community Room.
The Community Room can be divided into three similar sections, and holds up to 300 when the entire space is used. The high, barrel-vaulted ceiling—made of open beams and wooden planking—coordinates with the floor, polished to a gleam. A row of accent tiles marks the floor’s perimeter, but other than that, neutral earth tones keep the look light and accessible. With a tabula rasa like this one, you have the freedom to design a thoroughly original event. For example, one bride partnered with a nearby nursery and filled the room with potted trees, garlands of greenery, and hanging floral baskets to create an enchanted forest. Another set up portable chimnea fireplaces on the patio, and with woven carpets and Native American wall hangings, gave the space a Southwestern ambiance.
The folks at the Center encourage your creativity, and there are no limitations on catering, so they say YES! to specialty cuisine. You’ll appreciate their friendly, helpful attitude, and the way they make you feel like part of the community, even if you visit from afar.
