Last year, more than 10,000 organizations in 46 countries came together to celebrate #GivingTuesday, a global day dedicated to giving back. On Tuesday, December 2nd,

our community will come together for one common purpose: to celebrate generosity and to give.

For 40 years, Hospice of Santa Barbara has been providing the Santa Barbara community withfree compassionate care to those impacted by a life-threatening illness or grieving the death of a loved one. We never charge for services. We rely solely on the supportive network of

generous donors who empower us to create innovative programs that speak to the needs of our friends, family and neighbors.

Kick off the giving season on Tuesday, December 2nd, by supporting Hospice of Santa Barbara

To make a donation, or learn more about our programs and services, please visit www.hospiceofsantabarbara.org.

2050 Alameda Padre Serra Ste. 100 - Santa Barbara, CA 93103 - (805) 563-8820

CALL for ENTRIES

Luminarias

Artists should plan to join the CASA Team for a romantic evening of music, art, and

light refreshments on 1st Thursday, December 4th and find Harold Kono at the keyboard surrounded by the soft light of luminarias and art by local artists.

Luminarias were originally small vigil fires of pine needles. In this exhibition, they are lights from artists’ souls, 2D & 3D art works, that will cast a new light during the holiday season as artists share their play with the idea that art creates light. Luminarias will be on display December 1st through January 30th.

TO PARTICIPATE: Send images of up to two works related to the theme to [email protected] by November 27th at midnight. Work will be juried and results emailed. All work must be wired or pedestal ready and must be FOR SALE. No work larger than 30 inches wide will be accepted.
