In partnership with the City of Santa Barbara, Sunflowers on State is a new, community-led art installation. Six larger-than-life sunflower sculptures fabricated by local artists will be painted by students for exhibition on Santa Barbara’s State Street beginning in March 2022. Designed in the Impressionistic style, the sunflowers represent one of several programs developed by the community in tandem with the Santa Barbara Museum of Art’s Vincent Van Gogh exhibition.
