(No restroom here, but gas stations are nearby at Wells & Citrus Dr. Weather forecast high: 81 degrees, so bring an umbrella & water.) - Laura Jespersen VC Landmark No. 118, Saticoy Bean Warehouse (DIX-SEE painted on the front) 1299 Wells Road, Ventura (Saticoy community) This 1917 warehouse served the area's important local lima bean industry. The Bean Warehouse and next door Saticoy Walnut Growers Warehouse (Landmark No. 117), stand today as important reminders of the agricultural history and the growth of the farming cooperative movement in California. OTHER LANDMARKS NEARBY: VC Landmark No. 117, Saticoy Walnut Growers Association Warehouse 1235-1255 East Wells Road, Saticoy [next to Landmark No. 118] This warehouse was built in 1917 for drying and shipping Diamond Brand walnuts for the California Walnut Growers Association. The association was established by leaders of the Sunkist citrus industry. Many of the techniques perfected by the citrus industry, including Charles C. Teague's cooperative marketing methods, were used to market walnuts. Eugene C. Kimball, a local resident, perfected a new way to dry walnuts which greatly reduced product losses. The building is one of two large agricultural warehouses in Saticoy located on opposite sides of a Southern Pacific Railroad spur track. VC Landmark No. 176, Saticoy Southern Pacific Railroad Depot 11220 Azahar Street, Saticoy [The Depot is boarded up and surrounded by a fence. Still could be interesting to paint as a “neglected” landmark. The project Rails With Trails hopes to have a pathway pass by here.] The Saticoy Southern Pacific Railroad Depot is located in the unincorporated community of Saticoy which is situated in the Santa Clara River Valley in Ventura County, California. Historically, the structure accommodated both freight and passenger service in and out of Ventura County, with a heavy emphasis on the distribution of agricultural goods. In terms of architectural style, it fits best into the late Victorian: Stick/Eastlake Style, as evidenced by the presence of various styles of wood siding and wide overhanging eaves supported by brackets. Its primary building material is wood. Significant features of the structure include, but are not limited to, its floorplan, windows and doors, and interior and exterior wall finishes. At the current time, the structure is in fair condition and has a high degree of historic integrity intact. Between 1863 and 1869, the transcontinental railroad was under construction. By 1890, the railroad had not only come west, but Southern Pacific had constructed a network of rail to serve Southern California. Along with this network, Southern Pacific constructed depots to accommodate freight as well as passenger service. Southern Pacific had standard designs for depots that were employed throughout the county. A depot design was chosen for use based on the specific needs of the area in which it was to be located. These depot structures were often prefabricated in a central location, transported by rail, and assembled on site. Saticoy would have been prefabricated in Southern Pacific's Sacramento shop, shipped to Saticoy via rail, and assembled on site in Saticoy. The Saticoy Southern Pacific Railroad Depot was constructed in November 1887, as part of the great expansion of the Southern Pacific Rail System, ongoing at the time. VC Landmark No. 119, The Farmers & Merchants Bank of Santa Paula - Saticoy Branch 1203 Los Angeles Avenue, Saticoy This neo-classical building housed the first branch bank in Ventura County, built in 1911. It stands as a reminder of Saticoy's vitality as an important agricultural shipping community around the turn of the century. Architect: Withey & Davis. [VC Point of Interest No. 6, Saticoy Springs and Chumash Indian Village Sa'aqtik'oy Site Location: Bounded by Saticoy Avenue, Telephone Road, Wells Road, and railroad tracks, Saticoy Chumash settlement of this site dates back to 5,500 BC. By 1782, the village of Sa’aqtik’oy had been reduced to a minor or seasonal native settlement. It was not actively operated as a rancheria (agricultural outpost) by the Mission, nor did any Chumash converts in Mission records report Sa’aqtik’oy as their village of origin. Chumash resettlement of Sa’aqtik’oy was undertaken after the secularization of the Missions in 1834. Luis Francisco became chief of the Saticoy rancheria. In the fall of 1863, he presided over a fiesta that drew some 300 Native Americans from Ventura, Santa Barbara, Tejon, and other places. (Nunis, 1977: 107) This site was home to the last major Chumash ceremonial gathering in 1869. The celebration lasted five days, drawing Chumash leaders from Santa Inez, Santa Barbara, and San Fernando for singing and dancing. The site was eventually purchased by an Italian farmer in 1916; the Veterans Home of California, Ventura was built over a portion of the site and completed in 2009.] [VC Landmark No. 102 Sacred Heart Mission Church: This white clapboard country church was constructed in 1910 at the northwest corner of Telephone Road and Saticoy Avenue in Saticoy as Arnold's General Store and Post Office. In 1915, farmer John P. Thille and other community leaders had the building moved to the northwest side of Violeta Street between Wells Road and Los Angeles Avenue and converted it to a chapel, named Sacred Heart, a parish of Mission of St. Sebastian in Santa Paula. The building fell out of use when the congregation relocated to a new building on Henderson Road in 1968. It was moved to its current location in 1987 and burned down in August 2005.] - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/ventura/paint-out-at-saticoys-historic-dix-see-warehouse/200028573876448 - **Event Categories**: art, fine-arts, trips-adventures - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 24 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: http://facebook.com/200028573876448?utm_source=AllEvents.in&utm_medium=event-discovery-platform&utm_campaign=ventura-events ## Event venue details - **city**: Ventura - **state**: CA - **country**: United States - **location**: 11011 Azahar St, Ventura, CA 93004-1943, United States - **lat**: 34.282742054282 - **long**: -119.14888052513 - **full address**: 11011 Azahar St, Ventura, CA 93004-1943, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/ddbf0487af4d5df3f73d4a03e74c8b80a0f8defba9d06b5713cfb9f041275a08-rimg-w1200-h900-dc959591-gmir?v=1754232072 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/5e03caecc478f854307fec5ff3b0a36f2e13e68a460426e3f46b1f6f9f576d6b-rimg-w300-h300-dc949591-gmir?v=1754232074 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Sun, 03 Aug, 2025 at 09:00 am - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** 11011 Azahar St, Ventura, CA 93004-1943, United States - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** art, fine-arts, trips-adventures - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Paint Out at Saticoy's Historic DIX-SEE Warehouse ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Paint Out at Saticoy's Historic DIX-SEE Warehouse", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/ddbf0487af4d5df3f73d4a03e74c8b80a0f8defba9d06b5713cfb9f041275a08-rimg-w1200-h900-dc959591-gmir?v=1754232072", "startDate": "2025-08-03", "endDate": "2025-08-03", "url": "https://allevents.in/ventura/paint-out-at-saticoys-historic-dix-see-warehouse/200028573876448", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "11011 Azahar St, Ventura, CA 93004-1943, United States", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "11011 Azahar St, Ventura, CA 93004-1943, United States", "addressLocality": "Ventura", "addressRegion": "CA", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "34.282742054282", "longitude": "-119.14888052513" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Today’s historic landmarks are not what you would typically expect for a landmark painting (ornate, beautifully landscaped…) but this area is historically important for its agricultural and railroad developments, and Saticoy Springs was the site of a Chumash Indian Village.\n\n>> Sunday, Aug 3." } ] ```
