About the Museum of Contemporary Art Santa Barbara

MCASB was founded as Santa Barbara Contemporary Arts Forum (CAF) in 1976 by artists and supporters seeking a venue that was dedicated solely to contemporary art. These initial organizers envisioned a “forum” for the display of and discussion about artwork being made today, both locally and in the larger national and international art community. What once began as a grassroots, artist-run organization with nominal funding now serves as the leading contemporary arts presenter in Central California. MCASB does not charge admission fees because MCASB believes that the arts should be accessible to all audiences of all persuasions. It truly is foundations and individuals from the community and around the country that keep MCASB active, inspired, and alive with opportunities for artists, children, and adults to experience all that the visual and performing arts have to offer. MCASB is located at the Paseo Nuevo Shopping Center Upper Arts Terrace in downtown Santa Barbara, CA, with a second location, MCASB Satellite @ Hotel Indigo Santa Barbara, at 121 State Street, Santa Barbara, CA.
