The Flying A: Silent Film in Santa Barbara

The Flying A exhibition will focus on the studio's influential and prolific operation in Santa Barbara between 1912 and 1921, when nearly one thousand silent films were made by the studio before it was closed. The exhibition features original Flying A artifacts, documents, photographs and a selection of original Flying A silent films (which will play on our Sala Gallery Wall Theatre). This groundbreaking exhibit will run through the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, and marks the centennial anniversary of the Flying A's arrival in Santa Barbara. This book accompanied the exhibit.
