LOCATION

The Carousel House, located on the western end of Chase Palm Park, is the former home of a historic carousel for 20 years. It has now been made over into a gorgeous open event venue with a greenhouse-like feel. Backdropped by the glittering Pacific and a lush park, guests can expect to soak in the sunset while admiring the pelicans and gulls soaring off into the distance.

BUILDING FOR NOW AND THE FUTURE

In January of 2021, Santa Barbara Wildlife Care Network officially broke ground on its 5,400 square foot, state-of-the-art Wildlife Hospital. Not only will this hospital be the first of its kind in the Santa Barbara and Ventura areas, but it will also provide critical upgrades to current facilities and resources.

As a nonprofit organization, the Benefit for Wildlife is one of the most important events of the year for funding SBWCN’s work. By supporting this event, you can help us reach our final goal and fully fund the construction of the Wildlife Hospital.
