You’re invited to an online lecture by Dr. Gary Greenberg, Founding Member of Environmental Communications.

On the occasion of the exhibition Environmental Communications: Big Bang Beat L.A. at the AD&A Museum, we are pleased to invite you to an online lecture by Dr. Gary Greenberg, a founding member of EC—a pioneering Los Angeles–based collective of artists, architects, and thinkers active from the late 1960s through the 1980s. The group’s experimental publications, photography, and performances helped redefine how architecture and the environment are perceived, documented, and discussed.

During his talk, Dr. Greenberg will explore:
• The creation of the EC collective of artists, architects, and thinkers.
• The production of the EC catalog as a vehicle for sharing the collective’s work and visionary ideas.
• The multimedia shows and performances the collective created to engage the public in new ways of seeing and experiencing the built environment.

Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from one of the original voices behind a movement that continues to inspire architects, artists, and cultural historians today.

“We have a startling abundance of the goods that fill a house and a shortage of what’s needed to build a good life.” – Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson, Abundance

Ezra Klein, New York Times columnist, podcast host and policy analyst, offers a bold new vision for American progress drawn from his book Abundance. For too long, he argues, public discourse has focused on limits – what we can’t do, build or afford. But the real crisis isn’t scarcity, it’s our failure to act. In this timely talk, Klein calls for a mindset shift toward possibility. He explores how regulations, institutions and cultural caution have stalled progress, and how embracing abundance can help us tackle housing, climate, infrastructure and more by building smarter, faster and for the public good.

The Light So Shines — A Theatrical Christmas Celebration of Hope, Joy & Light

Friday, December 12, 2025 · 7:00 PM · Lobero Theatre

This Christmas, the Santa Barbara Master Chorale and Dr. David Lozano Torres present The Light So Shines — a theatrical concert experience where drama and music intertwine to tell a story of hope, joy, and divine light. At the heart of the evening is Gerald Finzi’s luminous In Terra Pax, surrounded by inspiring works by Sarah Quartel, Dan Forrest, Mack Wilberg, and Mark Hayes. Beloved carols such as Angels We Have Heard on High, Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, and Deck the Hall help guide the unfolding narrative, brought to life by actors, soloists, and chamber orchestra. A stirring and heartwarming holiday experience for the whole family.

Tickets: $30–$60, available at sbmasterchorale.org or the Lobero Theatre box office.

Ride the coastal swell of poetry, music, and movement in Spirit Mending, an intimate new work that stitches heart, body, and sound into one luminous evening. Poetry and music by Ron Fullerton. Poetry by Joelle Hannah. Performance by Megill & Company. Part ritual, part concert, part dance theater—this is SoCal creativity in full flow.

Sunday, November 2nd join us for a night of poetry, violin, and piano music presented by Tim Pompey, Sharon Cooper-Crandall and Alex Curry.
Tickets are $20 online at NambaArts.com or $25 at the door.

Shadow Country is a collection of poems about life, love, memories, and perception. From sitting next to a lake, to traveling through mountains, to watching elderly residents from behind a desk, Mr. Pompey’s poems take in life with insight, dry humor, and the perceptions of a poet who has reached the twilight of aging. Somewhere in this mix is God the observer and perhaps a chance to live in peace. As such, the poetry, violin, and piano music presented tonight reflect the atmosphere, emotions, and values of a life in search of that peace.
