Join Santa Barbara Permaculture Network for our 5th sponsored art square at the 38th Annual I Madonnari Chalk Art Festival that takes place every Memorial Day weekend at the Old Mission Santa Barbara. Sponsored by the Children’s Creative Project, Santa Barbara Permaculture Network first began participating in 2020 with nature inspired art squares, with themes that included beaver & wetlands; the amazing world of fungi; coastal kelp forests; and the biologically alive soils beneath our feet.
Our 2024 theme shares the work of ecological design pioneer John Todd and his “Living Machines” that work with nature using only sunlight, plants, & microorganisms to clean & restore waterways & oceans from toxic waste created by human activity. In 2023 John Todd was honored with the Santa Barbara Permaculture Network Eco Hero Award.
The I Madonnari Festival is special as it gives the public an opportunity to watch participating artists in action, sometimes with a chance to talk with them. For the second year, local artist Kristen Sell will be Santa Barbara Permaculture Network’s featured artist. The festival also includes music, food vendors, and visitors from around the world, with a chance to meet new friends at the tables provided on the Mission lawn.
Santa Barbara Permaculture Network’s art square is usually located below the Old Mission steps, on the right hand side as you face the Mission. Hope to see you there!
