California Rock Art Foundation

The California Rock Art Foundation (CRAF) is a scientific and educational organization committed to the research, understanding, conservation, documentation, and education of rock art created by the Native peoples of California, encompassing both Alta and Baja California. CRAF emphasizes the significance of rock art resources, which include pictographs, petroglyphs, intaglios, and geoglyphs, and boasts one of the largest and most diverse collections of such art in the Western Hemisphere.

By focusing on the preservation and appreciation of these historical artifacts, CRAF plays a vital role in promoting awareness and understanding of California's rich cultural heritage. The organization has also participated in the production and documentation of films that explore the rock art of the Californias, highlighting its importance and historical context.
