Sobrante Triangle Works

Community Mural Painting Event! Have fun with neighbors as we make art and celebrate with music and food!!

Triangle Works and Colors for Kids painted a mural at the intersection of Appian Way and Fran Way, El Sobrante in 2024. For questions, contact us at [email protected]. The arrival of the Good Table / Planting Justice Nursery to the El Sobrante Triangle laid a foundation to develop the Triangle area into a vital community asset. For example, We have several 55-gallon water barrels available now. Perfect for collecting rooftop runoff or emergency water storage. These food-grade barrels are drinking water-safe. $25 for pickup, or $35 delivered within 94803.

We are a group of El Sobrante and Richmond residents bringing Intentional Community and Arts to El Sobrante and the 94803 zip code area.

The “Sobrante Triangle” could become a regional hub (or “District”) for community and arts based activity and energy around the triangle-shaped intersection of Appian Way, Valley View Road and Sobrante Avenue in the El Sobrante / Richmond California 94803 Postal zone (see map on left).

THIS IS OUR TOWN, HELP US CREATE A VISION FOR THE TRIANGLE

Here is our evolving mission statement, we are refining this over time:

Mission Statement

“To create, enhance, vitalize, and protect all social, environmental, aesthetic, and community aspects of a ‘Triangle District’ that will:

• Develop and engage innovative and forward-thinking community;
• Foster local talents and expression in the arts and activism;
• Steer development and investment towards community-centric and community relevant businesses and services
• Improve the aesthetic and attraction of the Triangle as a destination; and
• Create places where our artists can live, create and show their work.”

Where we are located

Our current base of activity is the building we call “The Shed” on The Good Table and Planting Justice property, at 5166 Sobrante Avenue, site of the former Adachi nursery in El Sobrante, in the heart of the Triangle District.

Come help us build our vision and strategic plan, including the conclusion of Shed construction, support for “Muralization” of the Triangle, creation of an Emergency Radio network with The Shed as a hub and more. El Sobrante: It’s Up to Us!
