Atelier offers guests an evening of intimate, intriguing, occasionally irreverent interactions with art and artists in the galleries and outdoor plaza. This season, India and the exhibition Puja and Piety: Hindu, Jain, and Buddhist Art from the Indian Subcontinent act as inspiration, embracing everything from Moghul to Modern, from Bombay to Bollywood.
Enjoy artist-designed interactive installations and activities, music and dance, exhibition-inspired arrangements by The Garden Club of Santa Barbara, the Raj Gin and Tonic Bar co-designed with The Good Lion, and hors d’oeuvres inspired by the region of Goa and city of Mumbai by Fire and Ice Events.
Artist-designed interactive installations include:
- Snakes and Ladders: A Game of Dueling Dualities
- Gotta Get Ganesha: The Elephant in the Room
- Spice Market: Bag Your Blend
- Sculpt your State of “Buddha-Mind”
