  • Up next in the Carpinteria Valley Museum of History’s Talk & Talkback Speaker Series will be Jim Campos’s talk about the art of citrus crate labels. Campos, Carpinteria historian, educator, and former editor of the Citrus Label Society’s bi-monthly newsletter, The Citrus Peal, will provide a historical overview of citrus crate labels related to Carpinteria and Santa Barbara between 1885 and 1955. This illustrated history of one of Carpinteria's most historically important industries will include many rarely seen labels, as well as details of the varying types and styles of labels from decades past.

    The 2025 Talk & Talkback Speaker Series is hosted by the Carpinteria Valley Museum of History. The Art of the Citrus Crate Label will be held on Thursday, July 10th from 5 p. m. to 6 p.m. at the museum, 956 Maple Ave. in downtown Carpinteria. The talk is free for members of the museum and $10 per person for visitors.

    "This talk is a special opportunity to learn from one of the leading scholars on and collectors of citrus crate labels," said Jayme Yahr, the museum's director. "Not only are the labels vibrant and informative from a citrus industry standpoint, but they are also an important aspect of local history.” For more information on the Talk & Talkback Speaker Series, volunteering at the museum, or other questions, call (805) 684-3112, email info@carpinteriahistoricalmuseum.org, or visit carpinteriahistoricalmuseum.org.

    This exhibit for the entire month of May is entitled,“Creating from Within,” featuring four local artists from the Santa Ynez Valley,
    expressing the love-bond between mother and child, the joy of life, sharing thoughts and feelings without words, and visually representing deeply felt emotions as part of a self-soothing process.

    Sherry Uyeda & Alexandra Yakutis presenting in various mediums: oils, graphite, water
    colors, colored pencil, charcoal, and ceramic.

    This art will be on display for the entire month of May inside the Friends’ Room at the Buellton
    Library, which will be accessible for viewing during our open store hours (3 days per week, 2
    hours each day), as well as, for the Opening Reception. Our open hours are: Mondays

    raise funds to support the Buellton Library, host lecture series, and other events.
