Activities or mission (Part I)
The Santa Barbara Arts Collaborative (SBAC) is an inclusive group of artists and arts supporters committed to sustaining and growing all forms of the arts in Santa Barbara. SBAC welcomes all to participate in the focused support of individual artists and arts organizations that contribute to the unique cultural ecology of our community.All of our activities are collaborations between the SBAC and local artists, organizations, government entities, and individuals, or other sponsorships of small arts projects including fiscal sponsorships, mentorships and grants. We play a unique role in the community, using a combination of openness, collaboration, practicality, and the conservation of resources to help catalyze ideas multiple City and County Masterplans have called for for decades.
-
The chief focus of the SBAC for the last decade has been the building of the Community Arts Workshop, a space called for in a community-wide City Arts Master Plan published in 1985, and meeting a broadly identified need for affordable arts space. The SBACs origins are as an ad hoc committee organized in 2007 in response to the changing landscape for arts funding in Santa Barbara. A series of community meetings and conversations were convened to discuss loss of arts funding; loss of affordable space; an identified siloing of resources, organizations, communities, and opportunities; and other concerns. In response, a group of artists, arts organizations and concerned citizens came together to identify new and innovative ways to sustain the arts for future generations. A need was identified in the community for an organization that existed to stand in the gapsone that existed to collaborate, find and foster new opportunities, and broadly work to build the health of the local art scene. Since that time, the SBAC has collaborated to pilot and grow dozens, if not hundreds of projects and eventssome of which have become lasting programs of the SBAC like the Community Arts Workshop, Pianos on State, and Funk Zone Mapssome of which are now run by other organizations and individuals. We look for opportunitiesprojects or resources that would benefit the whole cultural ecosystem that no one else is suited to do, and work to connect resources to help make them happen. With the Campaign for the Community Arts Workshop completed, in 2025 through 2028 we are focusing our resources and fundraising efforts to support new programs like Opening Doors, Art KIT, Area Meeting, and the Community Arts Residency, expanding volunteer support by mobilizing Outreach Committee members, continuing development of the ArtZone apps potential as a promotional service for our local arts and culture sector, among other development goals.

On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
