Join the Santa Barbara Community Archives Project in preserving local history at Free Second Sunday for community members at the Santa Barbara Museum of Art! Bring your cherished family photographs and get free access to the museum.

Your photos will be scanned onsite and returned to you. Once processed, you will receive free digital copies, and your photos will be in a digital collection. As an initiative of the UC Santa Barbara Library, SBCAP exists to ensure that your stories are seen, heard, and celebrated—now and for future generations. Here is what we have preserved so far.
