About The Poinsettia PavilionAfter receiving cash donations from the community and a generous gift of $100,000 and approximately four acres of land from the Ralph B. Lloyd Foundation, the Ventura Women’s Center, a non-profit entity, formally opened its doors in September 1957 and has operated continuously since that time. In 1980 the facility changed its name to Poinsettia Pavilion; however, the facility still retains the legal name of Ventura Women’s Center as stated in the original Trust. In September 2007 the Poinsettia Pavilion observed its 50th year in operation. The Board of Trustees is comprised of board members that have been or currently are from the non-profit and for-profit business community. Committed to adhering to the original Trust agreement and by-laws established in 1954, the current Poinsettia Pavilion Board of Trustees limits use of the facility primarily to non-profit groups including community and service organizations, schools, churches, as well as city, state and federal government agencies. The facility is also available for fundraising events benefiting non-profit groups and organizations. More images in the Photo Gallery...
