350 pieces of local art in one pop-up show and sale

Ready to Hang is the Santa Barbara Arts Collaborative's yearly community art show and party: 350 artworks by artists from Santa Barbara and Ventura counties, each 12 by 12 inches, hung together at the Community Arts Workshop. Established and emerging artists show side by side, everything is for sale, and proceeds go to the artists and the Arts Collaborative.

Saturday's show is free and needs no ticket. New this year is a Sneak Peek on Friday, November 20, from noon to 2 pm, for $15 (tickets online or at the door), benefiting the SBAC. Parking is free on Saturday in the school district lot across Ortega Street, at Garden and Ortega, and street parking is usually easy on weekends.
