The Santa Barbara Maritime Museum (SBMM) has announced that its Curated Cocktail programs and Longshot Bar are returning. On the second Thursday of each month, from May through December 2022, SBMM will host a Curated Cocktail event on its patio from 5-7pm, with the first one scheduled for Thursday, May 12, 2022. Each program’s theme will be centered on the Museum’s lecture series, an important historic maritime event, a current exhibit, or items from the Museum’s collections, and each will feature a speaker, a signature cocktail, a full bar, and refreshments.

Two candidates running for the office of Santa Barbara County Superintendent of Schools will answer questions and share their views: Dr. Susan Salcido, incumbent, and Christy Schaeffer Lozano, teacher. The event is hosted by the League of Women Voters of Santa Barbara and co-sponsored by the American Association of University Women, Santa Barbara-Goleta Valley Branch.
