Today, at the City Council meeting, the legendary Kellam De Forest will receive the Saint Barbara Award, which is bestowed upon a member of the local community who has demonstrated a strong commitment to enhance and preserve the appearance of the City. Mr. De Forest will finally be recognized as a civic activist and historic preservation advocate by the City of Santa Barbara, the Architectural Board of Review and the Historic Landmarks Commission. It’s been seven years since the Saint Barbara Award was handed out, so please join us in congratulating Kellam De Forest, a long-time member of the Santa Barbara View community.
In a related note, the above group will present the Lockwood de Forest Award to Martha Degasis of Arcadia Studio for exemplary design in landscape architecture.



Well deserved. Kudos.
