Join us as we uncover the stories behind the places, people, and businesses that shape the beautiful city of Santa Barbara.
I'm kicking off the Funk Zone series with one of the Funk Zone's most exciting new additions: **Assemblage**—pronounced the French way. The Funk Zone is Santa Barbara’s most vibrant neighborhood for shopping, dining, and entertainment, so it’s no surprise that it’s home to one of the most unique spots to discover your next treasure.
Assemblage is more than just a vintage store—it’s a community, a philosophy, and a creative movement. Curated by visionary Henry Castelo, Assemblage brings together a dynamic mix of vintage finds, reclaimed treasures, and local art, all with a deep commitment to sustainability and storytelling. But behind the curated displays and carefully selected pieces is Henry’s own journey of transformation.
Join us as we explore how Henry changed his life and started following his passion for renewal, creativity, and connection, and how he is inspiring Santa Barbara to rethink the way we consume, create, and connect.
