Established in 2013, Baker Street West gained international notice, attracting fans of Sherlock, Victoriana, and Steampunk.
• It is home to Amador County’s only literary society, Holmes Hounds (with 70 members), and to Baker Street Players, a theatrical ensemble dedicated to Sherlockian and Victorian drama.
• It is both a cultural organization and a venue, providing youth of all ages with acting classes, workshops, and performance opportunities. By offering its unique venue for meetings, photo shoots, and events, Baker Street West has already begun attracting visitors to Amador County.
