fireside art gallery
art in an unexpected place
Since December 2021, Trinity has opened its doors to the Santa Barbara arts community through the Fireside Room Art Gallery. Recently renovated and expanded to include the adjacent Studio space, the gallery presents rotating exhibitions by local artists, many drawn to work with spiritual depth and resonance. Past and upcoming exhibitions have featured book artist and conceptual artist Linda Ekstrom, painter and retired pastor Bart Tarman, and watercolorist Nancy Jensen. The gallery is one of the ways Trinity reaches beyond its congregation and into the wider community, welcoming anyone who loves art to come and experience it in an unexpected place.
The gallery is open to the public during office hours, Monday through Friday, 9:00am to 1:00pm.
