OPENING RECEPTION | NOVEMBER 12 | 5–7PM
WORLD SERIES
Santa Barbara artist and activist Judi Weisbart creates assemblage sculpture that explores some of the most pressing social, humanitarian, and environmental issues of our time. Working with symbolism, found objects, and mixed materials, she uses art as a catalyst for conversation, connection, and positive change.
Her current exhibition, World Series, brings together a series of fifteen sculptures addressing global issues, aligning each with a non-profit partner here in Santa Barbara. Deeply engaged in the Santa Barbara community for decades, Judi’s creative practice reflects her enduring belief in the power of art to foster empathy, inspire dialogue, and remind us of our shared humanity. Sales from each piece will benefit the specific non-profit that addresses the issues represented by the sculpture:
CALM • New Beginnings • WEV • Legal Aid • SBNC • MJ • ADL • Planned Parenthood • SB Zoo • Multi Faith Harmony Coalition • Direct Relief • UNA SB • CEC • Lotusland • NAPF

Wines with Soul | November
Sandhi Wines + White Buffalo Land Trust
At Art & Soul, we believe that great art deserves a perfect pairing. Each month, we feature a wine that complements the spirit and style of our current exhibition.
This month, we are proud to welcome Sandhi Wines. Here, winemaking is rooted in a deep connection to the land—working with nature, expressing its character, and giving something back along the way.
Since 2021, Sandhi has partnered with White Buffalo Land Trust, a Santa Barbara County nonprofit dedicated to restoring healthy soils, increasing biodiversity, and advancing regenerative agriculture. At White Buffalo’s 1,000-acre Jalama Canyon Ranch, Sandhi purchases the entire crop of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes from its five-acre vineyard, crafting wines that reflect this remarkable landscape while directing proceeds from their sales back to the Land Trust.
The partnership brings together thoughtful winemaking and responsible land stewardship, creating wines that celebrate not only where they come from, but what can be given back.
