The historic building that houses the Golden Bough Theatre was occupied by the Carmel Arts and Crafts Club for nearly 100 years. It continues its legacy as a center for creativity as a performance site for the Pacific Repertory Theatre. The Circle Theatre, a round stage venue, is located just below the Golden Bough playhouse.
Art exhibits are held year-round in the gallery portion of this venue, while small onstage productions take place in adjacent Cherry Hall. (The word "hall" is a bit of a misnomer as the theater seats only 50 people.) This is quite the community venue. It has been established for more than 50 years. Its small size and central location make it ideal for experimental and children's theater groups. The gallery shows a broad spectrum of styles and media, often featuring local artists and crafters. Note: Credit card acceptance varies by event. See website for schedules and more.

Este establecimiento histórico de adobe fue construido en 1847 y fue utilizado como un hotel, una taberna, un tribunal y oficinas, todo para el ejército de los Estados Unidos. Las exposiciones interactivas llevarán a los visitantes de paseo por la rica e interesante historia de Monterey, como cuando fue la capital de la California mexicana y española.
Esta playa estatal de la península de Monterey es adonde se dirigen todos los habitantes de la zona.
