The Santa Barbara Sea Glass & Ocean Arts Festival Returns on September 9-10 and this time it’s coming to the Santa Barbara Elks Lodge (which is confusingly in Goleta). There’s sure to be all sorts of beautiful beach-inspired art and other treasures, as well as multiple artisans presenting workshops on how to transform your beachcombing booty into hand-crafted pieces.
The event, which is one of just two sea glass festivals on the West Coast, coalesces around collectors and artists who are inspired by natural beauty, beachcombing, and the alchemy of creating precious art from found objects in nature.

For the first time, the annual festival will be held at the Santa Barbara Elks Lodge, and, continuing with tradition, it will include stunning collections, hand-crafted jewelry, visual art, and informative speakers on sea glass hunting, identification, and craftsmanship.
