SUMMARY:Walk & Wine at the Historic El Paseo
DESCRIPTION:Reservation required.\nBuy tickets HERE. \nWander with historian Erin Graffy and explore the history of the El Paseo with wine tasting from three premier wineries including Grassini Family Vineyards\, Au Bon Climat and Jamie Slone Wines. \nSanta Barbara is internationally known for it’s Spanish-Colonial architectural style and the quintessential example of that style is El Paseo\, a charming complex in the heart of downtown. Designed to complement the Casa de la Guerra\, the political and social center of the pueblo in the 19th century\, it set the stage for the city’s architecture after the Great Earthquake in 1925. We invite you to discover the fascinating details (and fabulous wine!) discovered around every turn. \nAs one architectural historian has put it\, “Why equivocate? El Paseo is not a great Santa Barbara building. It is a great American building.” \n

SUMMARY:Evening Talk: Talk: Fremont\, Foxen and the San Marcos Pass
DESCRIPTION:By Neal Graffy \nOne hundred and seventy-three years ago this month\, Lt. Col. John C. Frémont and his California Battalion arrived at Benjamin Foxen’s Santa Ynez rancho. According to legend\, Foxen warned Fremont of an ambush by Californios at the Gaviota Pass and then guided the battalion around the trap by leading them safely over the rugged San Marcos Pass. Fremont “captured” Santa Barbara without firing a shot and less than three weeks later met Gen. Andres Pico and ended the Mexican-American war in California \nWell\, that’s according to legend. Our speaker\, Neal Graffy will at last reveal the full story – Who was Fremont and why was he even here? Who was Foxen? Why Fremont didn’t take the Gaviota Pass and who was Fremont’s guide over the San Marcos Pass. \nPlus! Meet the  women who challenged Fremont and changed California history. \nWINE RECEPTION TO FOLLOW \nReservation Required\nMembers $10\, Guests $15 \nMAKE A RESERVATION

DESCRIPTION:By Neal Graffy \nOne hundred and seventy-three years ago\, on the very night of this presentation\, “The Pathfinder\,” Lt. Col. John C. Frémont\, and his recently assembled California Battalion were encamped some 20 miles below Mission San Juan Bautista. Their goal? Head south and liberate Santa Barbara and then Los Angeles from the forces of General José María Flores. \nTo do so\, for the next twenty-three days Frémont and his men would embark on an historic and nearly comical march of 230 miles culminating in a Christmas Day descent from the Santa Ynez mountains in a torrential rainstorm to the foothills of La Goleta Rancho. According to legend\, Benjamin Foxen warned Frémont of a trap at Gaviota Pass and then led Frémont and the battalion safely over the “San Marcos Pass.” \nReservation Required\nMembers enter free\, Guests $5 \nMAKE A RESERVATION \nAbout Neal Graffy’s Talk:\nHaving assembled diaries\, family legends\, historic reviews\, and reminiscences of pure absurdum along with a bottle or two from the Foxen Winery\, Santa Barbara author\, lecturer and historian\, Neal Graffy XNGH will present “The Final\, Most Likely True Story of Frémont\, Foxen and the San Marcos Pass.”

SUMMARY:History Happy Hour: Old Time Foodies
DESCRIPTION:By Hattie Beresford \nLocation: Grassini Wine Tasting Room in the historic El Paseo \nCome enjoy a glass of wine and a talk on the oft-humorous life of Santa Barbara’s Foodies at the turn of the 20th century.   Just in time for Thanksgiving\, historian Hattie Beresford will explore the beginnings of “gourmet grub” in Santa Barbara. \nIn Nineteenth Century Santa Barbara\, some civic leaders felt that restaurants and Chinese cooks signaled the downfall of civilization. Many women disagreed. The more cosmopolitan of the populace\, however\, longed for a really fine restaurant\, and a hapless French chef named Lucien Abadie tried his best to woo a clientele away from the scurrilous oyster saloons. \nNo reservation needed\, but space will be limited so arrive early and order a glass of wine!

SUMMARY:Talk: On a Mission
DESCRIPTION:A talk by Janet Sands\nThe California missions tell a far more interesting story than you might have imagined. \nAuthor Janet Dowling Sands\, will speak about her book\, On a Mission\, a beautifully illustrated volume that takes you back to the landscapes and native cultures encountered by the first Europeans who explored California’s beautiful though dangerous coast. \nOn a Mission describes how the clash of empires and beginnings of globalization led to the missions’ founding—Spain’s final colonial endeavor. After Mexican independence\, the Californio culture of rancheros and vaqueros flourished\, setting the foundation for modern California’s open\, blended society. Learn how the missions were built and later saved from near-complete oblivion\, about the origins of Mission Style\, the rare art in the missions\, and so much more. Importantly\, this book provides insights and reflections on the tragic consequences of the mission system for California’s indigenous people— who not only built the missions\, but whose descendants live in California today\, and are working to revive their cultures\, languages\, and traditions. \nReservation required.\nMembers enter free\, Guests\, $5 \nAbove:\nFerdinand Deppe (1794–1861)\nMission San Gabriel\nCourtesy Santa Bárbara Mission Archive-Library \n\nAbout the Speaker:\nJanet Dowling Sands is a California native with a degree in Art History and Design from the University of California\, Berkeley. She is an accomplished photographer and watercolorist\, an avid collector of American art\, and a lifelong student of history\, art\, and the natural world. She has traveled extensively and has called many different cities home over the years\, including Maastricht\, Paris\, New York\, Santa Barbara\, and\, most recently\, Flagstaff\, Arizona. \nAs a businesswoman and philanthropist\, Ms. Sands spent many years working to improve science education for children and to support scientific outreach for the public. She was nominated Santa Barbara Woman of the Year in 2014 for her role in the successful school-community partnership “Science Matters.” \nWhile serving as president of the Santa Barbara Corral of Westerners International\, Ms. Sands created a popular series of lectures on lesser-known aspects of California history. Her own program “Visions of the West” explored the connection of Western American art to discovery\, science\, and the preservation of native cultures and natural landscapes; her program about the context and legacy of the California missions ultimately gave rise to this book.

SUMMARY:Talk: Military Artists in California during the Mexican War
DESCRIPTION:By Rose Marie Beebe & Robert M. Senkewicz \nReservation required. Members enter free\, guests are $5.\nRESERVE NOW \nIn this presentation the speakers will explore the personal experiences and artistic renderings of three military figures who produced important visual evidence of California during the 1840s. They were William Rich Hutton\, William Myers\, and Alfred Sully. All three produced vivid images of life in California during the 1840s. While some of their works have been widely reproduced\, others have been relatively undiscovered. The complete body of their works offers a unique glimpse of the way in which the American newcomers saw the land and the people of this region.

SUMMARY:1969:  The Santa Barbara Oil Spill & Birth of the Environmental Movement
DESCRIPTION:By Marc McGinnes \nOn January 28\, 1969\, a blowout at Union Oil’s Platform A caused three million gallons of oil to surge into the sea floor of the Santa Barbara Channel.   Over the next ten days the spill left an 800-square-mile stain on the ocean’s surface.  This disaster – forever a part of our local history – affected our coastline from Pismo Beach to Oxnard and beyond\, killing thousands of birds\, fish and marine mammals along with leaving large portions of Santa Barbara County dealing with the aftereffects for years. \nThe public outrage led to legislation and ultimately the birth of the modern environmental movement in Santa Barbara. \nMarc McGinnes\, Professor Emeritus and a founding member of UC Santa Barbara’s Environmental Studies Program\, will discuss the central role that our community has played in launching and sustaining the environmental movement through the past 50 years\, and the pivotal role it will play into the future. \nReservation required.  Members are complimentary\, guests $5. \n\nAbout The Speaker:\nMarc McGinnes was a leading founder of the Community Environmental Council and the Environmental Defense Center.  He is a founding member of the Environmental Studies Program at the University of California\, Santa Barbara (UCSB)\, where he developed and taught ten courses\, including the nation’s longest-running undergraduate course in environmental law and policy. The winner of numerous teaching awards\, he incorporated into the curriculum lessons learned from his experience as one of the country’s earliest practitioners of public interest environmental law. \n  \nHe is the author of In Love with Earth: Testimonies and Heartsongs of an Environmental Elder.
