We received our beautiful copy of Art's coffee table book. It is outstanding. It really gives you the feeling of being right there. Guy said it was just the way he remembered it when he was a child. He spent a few years growing up in Santa Barbara. He vividly remembers this celebration. Horse and buggies and all.....

Thanks to Art for his beautiful work of art. Anyone would be proud to have a copy on their coffee table.

I just wanted to let you know I purchased a couple of your Fiesta books during your fundraising campaign as I am on the BOD for Fiesta. They arrived yesterday. I just wanted to let you know after seeing it in its finished form, I was utterly moved. It really brought home why all of us work so hard every year to put on this event. You truly captured the spirit of the event and tradition, and I was honored to be a small part of this event. Thank you! I plan to buy a few more now so I can give them as gifts.

¡Viva la Fiesta!

It's gorgeousl It's too big for me to absorb all at once, but I was immediately drawn by the photos of the children – loved the young girls in black and white polka dots!
