Downtown Business Highlight: Asher Market
|
|
Asher Market is a local shop in Santa Barbara specializing in selling unique home decor, gifts and children's clothing using luxurious yet practical alpaca yarn.
A few highlights of alpaca products:
- Alpaca is up to five times warmer than sheep's wool
- Alpaca is generally safe for people who are allergic to sheep's wool because it does not contain lanolin
- Alpaca products are lightweight yet still warm. Pro tip: on a cold night, sleep with your throw under the blanket for extra warmth
- Alpaca products fold compactly making them the perfect travel item; and, upon your return home, you can wash them!

Santa Barbara Museum of Art Presents West Coast Debut of Through Vincent’s Eyes: Van Gogh and His Sources
February 27 – May 22, 2022
|
|
Landmark Exhibition Features Over 100 Works from 25 Museums September 20, 2021 — Organized by the Santa Barbara Museum of Art (SBMA) and in partnership with the Columbus Museum of Art, Through Vincent’s Eyes: Van Gogh and His Sources seeks to immerse viewers in the visual imagination of one of the most idolized artists in the world. By floating 20 works of art by Dutch painter Vincent Van Gogh in a sea of over 75 works of art by those that he admired, the exhibition provides an unprecedented opportunity for visitors to dive deeply into the rich, visual culture of Van Gogh’s late 19th-century world. Celebrated works of art by Van Gogh will be juxtaposed with works by the many artists he admired, thereby dramatizing both the artist’s indebtedness to and radical departure from the art world of his day. Opening November 12, 2021 in Columbus, OH and February 27, 2022 in Santa Barbara, CA, Through Vincent’s Eyes is curated by Santa Barbara Museum of Art Deputy Director and Chief Curator, Eik Kahng, and will be the first international loan exhibition to be presented following SBMA’s $50 million renovation of the original 1912 building and connected exhibition spaces.
