The satellite also offered educational programming, such as artist lectures, curatorial talks, performances, and film screenings, which allowed visitors to access exclusive views of special creative processes and curatorial choices. This culturally-rich site enhanced MCASB’s capacity for creative partnerships with local neighborhood associations such as the Funk Zone, Santa Barbara Waterfront, the Urban Wine Trail, Stearns Wharf, and the Historic Downtown Santa Barbara Arts District.
