An uplifting, friendly, grassroots kind of energy is part of everything that happens at the Community Arts Workshop (CAW).
From rehearsal space for Opera Santa Barbara to the creation of the pianos for Pianos on State and the opening party for the Santa Barbara Studio Artists Tour, the “Hey kids, let’s put on a show” vibe is baked into the very bones of this place. But nowhere is it more palpable than the Solstice Workshop. As they have done for close to 50 years, the visionary creators, artists, designers, builders, and swarms of worker bees gather each year to create an amazing, completely homegrown festival for the rest of us to enjoy.
