Beginning October 6, St. Athanasius Orthodox Christian Church is reviving its Sacred Arts Festival, first inaugurated back in 2011 when the community was worshipping in an interim building on Calle Real in Goleta. The plan was to host an Arts Festival every two years, but the global pandemic interrupted that flow. In 2014, the church moved into a new building on its 20-plus acres of land just down the street from Goleta Cottage Hospital. This will be the third festival in that building.
