Lecture: Women Architects Shaping Santa Barbara After the 1925 Earthquake

The 1925 earthquake was a pivotal moment in Santa Barbara’s architectural history, occurring just as a few pioneering women were breaking barriers in the field of architecture. Their visionary designs helped define the city’s distinctive aesthetic, leaving a lasting legacy in Spanish Colonial Revival, Modern, and other iconic styles.

Join us for an enlightening lecture exploring the remarkable women who shaped Santa Barbara’s built environment:

Julia Morgan & Margaret Baylor – Gymnasium & Beaux Arts with Spanish Colonial Revival style Inn Design

Mary M. Craig – Spanish Colonial Revival Influence

Lutah Maria Riggs – Spanish & Modern Innovations

Anna Louise Murphy Vhay – Spanish Colonial Revival influence

Harriet Moody – Planner and designer of English Cottage

This event is part of the EQ 25 efforts to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the 1925 Santa Barbara Earthquake. To learn more, visit https://eq25.org/
