You’re warmly invited to join us for the Summer Solstice Soirée—a benefit art auction and cocktail party supporting the beloved Santa Barbara Summer Solstice Celebration.

 

This enchanting afternoon will bring together art lovers, community leaders, and Solstice enthusiasts for an afternoon of connection, creativity, and joyful giving. In addition to the live auction, you can enjoy the poolside breeze, guitar stylings of Quique Hernandez, special performances by Electricirque, La Boheme, and tasty savory and sweet bites from local restaurants, beverages from local wineries and breweries.

 

Reserve your ticket today—your early RSVP helps us get an accurate headcount so we can make the afternoon truly magical for everyone.

We look forward to raising a glass with you as we celebrate the spirit of Summer Solstice and help it shine even brighter in the years to come.

Enjoy the ambience, connection and magic of Solstice!   We also invite you to share this opportunity with friends and colleagues who share your passion for the arts and community. The more, the merrier—and the greater the impact we can make together.

All proceeds will help fund our mission to unite the community through the power of hands-on participation in the arts. We look forward to raising a glass with you as we celebrate the spirit of Summer Solstice and keep it thriving for years to come!
