We are deeply saddened to share the sudden loss of Myrtle Tree Arts co-founder, Paul Godwin, in October 2025. View his Remembrance and read his Obituary.
Those wishing to remember Paul in a lasting way may give a gift to preserve his artistic legacy, inspire new creative visions and support artists he championed.
At Myrtle Tree Arts, we believe that art has the power to transform lives and bring communities together. Our events are designed to nurture creativity and inspire artistic expression in individuals of all ages. From workshops, concerts, exhibitions and community events, there is something for everyone. Together, we can cultivate a vibrant artistic landscape that enriches our community.

We acknowledge that the riparian ecosystems of the American, Cosumnes and Yuba Watersheds of the Sierra Foothills are located in the unceded traditional homelands of the Miwok, Nisenan, Maidu, and Washoe Peoples who have lived here for thousands of years and live here still. We recognize and mourn the painful history of genocide and devastation of the lands and waters. With our work, we are grateful for opportunities to learn from and partner with Indigenous Peoples around a shared vision for stewardship and restoration.
