Join us for a free poetry workshop and tasting event in the Presidio Neighborhood!
Santa Barbara Poet Laureate George Yatchisin and Gunpowder Press invite the community to find inspiration and create poetry about Santa Barbara County food, drinks, restaurants, and agriculture for a new collection to be published by Gunpowder Press. After a poetry workshop led by Yatchisin, participants will visit Rudy’s Mexican Restaurant for a tasty bite, Loubud Wines to sip a local sparkling wine, and The Space—Su’nan Protection, Art & Cultural Education for a Chumash sweet treat. We hope this immersive experience in the Presidio Neighborhood will inspire you to create your own poetry about our community’s food and drink, and submit your work to the forthcoming Santa Barbara County food and drink anthology.
Pre-registration required, capacity is limited.

This event is coordinated by the Santa Barbara Trust for Historic Preservation.
Special thanks to the City of Santa Barbara and the Santa Barbara County Office of Arts and Culture.
