Mission

Founded in 2019, The Honarkar Foundation is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to supporting and promoting arts, culture, and education in Laguna Beach. The Foundation envisions a world where the arts and humanities are not exclusive privileges, but rather cherished resources that inspire, empower, and connect.
 
Launched in 2023, our spacious 4,200-square-foot exhibition venue is housed within the historically significant former post-office building at 298 Broadway Street. This museum-quality exhibition space is dedicated to showcasing a rotating series of curated shows, with a specific focus on Southern California artists. It also plays host to a diverse range of public programming and collaborations, including performances, screenings and discursive events.
