| Dear Friend of MCASB,
This was an exciting year filled with change and growth for the Museum. Born out of a commitment to inclusivity and accessibility, we launched takepart | makeart: arte para todos, a community-wide public art initiative that allowed us to connect with new audiences and provide innovative opportunities for Santa Barbara residents to explore contemporary art.
In keeping with our mission of advancing creativity and inspiring critical thinking through meaningful engagement with the art of our time, we featured internationally-acclaimed exhibitions such as Guatemala from 33,000 km: Contemporary Art, 1960 – Present, presented as part of the Getty’s Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA initiative, which explores formal, political, and social concerns that permeate contemporary art both in Latin America and around the globe.
As we wrap up the year and reflect on the many successes of the Museum over the past 12 months, we are particularly proud of what projects like takepart | makeart and Guatemala from 33,000 km: Contemporary Art, 1960 – Present taught us and allowed us to do.
These projects, along with everything we do at MCASB, would not be possible without the support of our community. So today, on #GivingTuesday, please consider making a tax-deductible donation to help us continue to advance contemporary art in the communities where we live, work, and play.

Warm Wishes, |
