Ganna Walska Lotusland is honored to collaborate with the Lutah Maria Riggs Society for a 2021 screening of the award-winning documentary film Lutah -- A Passion for Architecture: A Life in Design.
Celebrating an integral person in Santa Barbara’s architectural history, we invite the public to join us at the Lobero Theatre, a building where Lutah’s fingerprint has been revealed. We will screen the film and commemorate Lutah Maria Riggs, who dedicated her life to her profession and to our community. With stunning footage of some of Santa Barbara’s most iconic structures and a rare glimpse of private homes, LUTAH sheds light on true Santa Barbara treasures.
Following the film, a panel discussion immediately follows with esteemed architects Deming Isaacson, Marc Appleton, Anthony Grumbine as well as Lutah Maria Riggs Society Historian Melinda Gandara, and moderated by Lotusland Research Associate Rose Thomas.
