Ironic that they use the term “artist colony”. That was how the town of Sausalito was promoted and by the late 1970’s most of the artists that lived there were forced out? financially and had to live as far as 300 miles away, then just ship their art to the galleries they used to live near. (search: history of Sausalito houseboat community, for starters).
Another “artist colony” is San Miguel de Allende in Mexico. After becoming famously known for the artists, now the artists can’t afford it.
