What an exciting October we’ve had! From launches to conversations to press to events a lot has happened (and continues to happen) with the Facing Ourselves Project!
OCTOBER HIGHLIGHTS:
The Facing Ourselves Exhibition officially opened October 18th and closed November 4th. Thank you so much to Peter Dugre who was able to video the opening night chat.

Patricia was invited to join host David Starkey for his Creative Community program.
Charles Donelan at the Santa Barbara Independent also wrote a great article on the Facing Ourselves show in Carpinteria.
Great conversations, visits and a school assembly with children from Crane School, and some insightful press and interviews have been happening recently.
NOVEMBER EVENTS
The exhibition had a very full final weekend and was visited by guests from all over Southern California. Renowned Poet and Publisher Glenna Luschei taught a poetry workshop at the Gallery to the theme “Where I came from—a response to photographs in English and Spanish.” A poetry reading with Santa Barbara Poet Laureate Laure-Anne Bosselaar commenced at 4 pm and had a large and enthusiastic audience.
Bubbly was uncorked at the end of the poetry reading to mark the close of an extraordinary few weeks at the Lynda Fairly Carpinteria Arts Center.
