Founded in 1872, the Bohemian Club is a private association based in San Francisco, California, dedicated to professionals in Literature, Art, Music, and Drama. The club operates as both an intellectual retreat and an elite social gathering, with a longstanding tradition of fostering artistic and creative pursuits among its members.
The organization maintains two primary properties: a six-story city club building in San Francisco and Bohemian Grove, a 2,700-acre retreat in Sonoma County, California. The Grove hosts the club's annual Summer Encampment, which features artistic programming, nature appreciation, fine dining, and fellowship. Both properties are recognized as historic landmarks.
The Bohemian Club operates within the hospitality and private club management industries. It is known for its prestigious membership and commitment to nurturing talent through a management internship program, which provides hands-on experience in club operations and event management.
