SB Melanin Mixers
Don’t miss out on SB Melanin’s monthly mixers — where connection, culture, and good vibes come together. Twice a month, we gather to unwind, network, and celebrate community in a space that feels like home. Enjoy great music, conversations, and laughs with Santa Barbara’s Black community and allies.
Mixers are free for SB Melanin members and just $5 for non-members.
Join the movement. Come for the fun, stay for the family. 💜
