Boho Castro, a Bohemian-style fundraiser for the Castro Adobe

This is a ticketed event. Cost is $75. Tickets are available on Eventbrite.

Join us for a Bohemian-inspired gathering to honor the Castro Adobe stewards from the past and celebrate recent progress toward opening the Castro Adobe State Historic Park.

Step back into the 1960s at the Castro Adobe, a time when the Jowers family owned and cared for the property. Relive the Jowers’ good times, when an eclectic ensemble of their artistic friends made the Castro Adobe a Bohemian center of arts and culture.

Boho Castro will also pay tribute to the Jowers’ iconic Aptos restaurant, the Sticky Wicket, by featuring foods modeled after the original menu as prepared by Mickey's Catering. Beer by Corralitos Brewing Co., wine from Storrs Winery, and made-to-order tea and espresso will be served.

The Sticky Wicket outdoor concerts evolved into the Cabrillo Music Festival thanks to Lou Harrison, Robert Hughes, the Jowers and others. Boho Castro will highlight this connection with live music at the event. Enjoy Lone Prairie, a vintage Western band, of which former Castro steward Joe Kimbro was a member. Also featured will be harmonica player Brendan Power (Laura Jowers’ partner). Brendan Power has recorded with Sting, Kate Bush, James Galway and other luminaries, played in the Riverdance show and performed on the Oscar winning soundtrack for the movie “Atonement.” Recorded Lou Harrison music will also be played.

Period dress is encouraged!
