The Unveiling of "14 Carrot" at the Los Robles Regional Medical Center

“Another Cottontail in the Conejo! The extraordinary Conejo Cottontail "14 Carrot," was premiered today in front of the main entrance to Los Robles Regional Medical Center.

The ACCV is proud to have collaborated with Art Trek in this public art project since 2015, which has brought twenty fiberglass rabbits to the Conejo Valley.

This exceptionally beautiful cottontail is covered with glass mosaic tiles and is a real work of art. Congrats to artist Melissa Grossman, Nan Young, and everyone at Art Trek.

It is especially gratifying for our council that 14 Carrot is a donation from the Conejo community, an expression of gratitude to the health worker heroes here at Los Robles Hospital who have worked so selflessly during the pandemic. We hope it will continue to bring joy to many for years to come!” - Ed Smart, Arts Council of the Conejo Valley

Brooks Cottontail Dedication and Unveiling at the Civic Arts Plaza in Thousand Oaks, CA

This morning at the Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza we unveiled one of our first and most precious Conejo Cottontails, Brooks. Brooks was designed and painted by world renowned artist, Hessam Abrishami with the late Jane Brooks in mind. Jane Brooks was a lover of the arts in our community, from curating art shows to collecting art from around the world. She did it all. Jane had this wonderful idea to bring large fiberglass sculptures of rabbits to the Conejo Valley, now 15 years later her dream is becoming a reality. We hope she is proud. 

Below you will find wonderful images from this great event. We hope to bring many more cottontails to the Conejo Valley.
