The House of Malico is an interdisciplinary hub shaping the intersections of creative productions, direct services and public programs.
We value collaborations built upon genuine connection that aligns both intention and aesthetics. The House of Malico’s productions cultivate communities of artists and entrepreneurs whose work is invested in cultural progression. Contemporary art and artist are the centre of The House of Malico. Together we are creating works that speak to the nuance of the individual, the collective and the imagination.
At The House of Malico, our social practice is a pivotal medium for us to connect and build creative communities (irl). We design public programs to encourage collaborative engagement with nourishing environments filled with intimate conversation, interactive activities and joy. Whether it be a cultural conference, an independent music concert series, or a rejuvenating retreat; Our events are born from influencers and tastemakers that are exhibiting works that allow participants to embody their own creative expression.
Since 2012 The House of Malico has partnered with artists, festivals and institutions to curate innovative spaces that provide enriching experiences for people to connect with contemporary art and community. Our works and curated experiences have reached international and local audiences across the Oakland Bay Area, Hawai‘i, NYC and Shanghai.
