The Actors Registry of Santa Barbara was founded in 2012 to support local actors and connect talent with film and media productions on California’s Central Coast.

Guided by Founder Cindy Stevens and later President Christina Eliason, the Registry served the community for more than a decade with care, integrity, and a strong belief in the value of local creative work.

As of 2025, the Registry has formally closed. With gratitude for the many artists and collaborators who made this work meaningful, its spirit now lives on within 805 Film Collective.
