Foster Park Bowl, Open-air amphitheatre in Ventura, United States.
Foster Park Bowl stands between Ojai and Ventura, featuring stone seating arrangements that follow the natural slope of the terrain.
The amphitheatre opened in 1928 as part of a broader initiative to establish public recreational spaces across Ventura County.
Through the 1960s, this outdoor venue served as a central location for theatrical productions, musical concerts, and community gatherings.
The amphitheatre, located at 438 Casitas Vista Road, contains seating for 1,000 visitors and requires substantial renovation to resume operations.
Local teenagers formed a preservation group in 2009 to maintain and clean the structure, demonstrating community involvement in its protection.
