Members-only Happy Hour with S.B. Poet Laureate George Yatchisin
At the Museum | Backyard
Looking for an exclusive escape from the dog days of summer? We extend a special invitation to you, our esteemed Members, for a unique happy hour under the oaks in the Museum Backyard. This is an event exclusively for our Members, featuring a poetry reading from Santa Barbara's very own Poet Laureate George Yatchisin.
George, a local poet, was recently honored as Santa Barbara's eleventh poet laureate. His poetry, deeply rooted in our community, has appeared widely in journals and anthologies.
As a three-decade resident of Santa Barbara, George retired from his position as director of communications for UCSB’s Gevirtz Graduate School of Education in 2023. His dedication to both poetry and education, evident in his three decades of service, is truly inspiring and a testament to his passion for his craft.
Ages 21+ only; no children will be admitted. Adult beverages will be available for purchase.
Attending this event is free, but Members must reserve a spot by emailing jleathers@sbnature2.org or calling 805-682-4711 ext. 114. (Option to reserve online coming soon.) Members may bring a guest for $10.
