Art gives us time to reflect, inspires creativity, and acts as a catalyst for change. Each of us has a unique perspective, and when it is shared through the universal language of art, it has great power. Visual art, dance, theater, music, and the written word have all had a significant impact in history, and they compose the heart and soul of a city.
Whether you are a creator or consumer of art, welcome to our community.
An interactive art destination in Santa Barbara, perfect for exploring the next generation of media arts.
