HERITAGE, CRAFT & EVOLUTION: Surfboard Design 1885 – 1959 An Exciting Exhibit of Surfboards, Paintings and Historic Photographs

Opening to the public at the Santa Barbara Maritime Museum on June 24, 2021, the exhibit traces the history of surfing and the evolution of surfboard design, illustrated by replica boards with oil painting vignettes of the locations, plus text and historic photographs. The book and the exhibit are the result of a unique collaboration between three important figures in the California surfing community: Renny Yater, one of the first commercial surfboard shapers of the 1950s; John Comer, plein-air painter; and painter and surfboard shaper, Kevin Ancell. Altogether, the exhibit presents a multimedia story of surfing, surfboard development, and the California surfing scene.

Natural Reserve System Fall 2021 Virtual Seminar Series

We present an exciting opportunity to connect with the UC Santa Barbara Natural Reserve System through our second offering of a Fall Virtual Seminar Series! This year, the seven-part seminar series will kick off on Tuesday, October 5th, 2021, and each presentation will take place virtually, via Zoom, each Tuesday evening from 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm PT, ending on November 16, 2021.

The 2021 seminar series will showcase the latest programs and research across UC Santa Barbara’s 7 extraordinary Reserves. Each weekly seminar will focus on a particular Reserve and will feature a paired presentation with the Reserve’s Director - sharing highlights and updates from the Reserve - and an expert scientist or educator who focuses their research or teaching at that Reserve.

UC Santa Barbara operates seven Reserves within the 41-site University of California Natural Reserve System, the world’s largest network of protected lands dedicated to supporting research and education. UCSB’s Reserves are located in diverse ecosystems ranging from coastal (Coal Oil Point Reserve, Carpinteria Salt Marsh Reserve, Santa Cruz Island Reserve, and K.S.N. Rancho Marino Reserve) to inland valleys (Sedgwick Reserve), and to the Sierra Nevada (Sierra Nevada Aquatic Research Laboratory and Valentine Reserve). We hope that you’ll join us for this inside look at the UC Natural Reserve System.

Registration is free and is open now at nrs.ucsb.edu/events.
