Hi Friends, You might have heard—last year we hosted our first-ever live event, and we're excited to share it with you! Our Port of Entry Live event was part of the World Design Experience, linked to San Diego–Tijuana's 2024 World Design Capital initiative. The event joined a larger lineup of exhibitions, talks, art shows, installations, and workshops held throughout San Diego and Tijuana to showcase our area's creative talent. Today's episode contains part 1 of the unedited recording of that live event, presented in two parts. It’s part of a larger five-episode bundle, including our recent podcast episode "Charles and Giancarlo - Compadres in Art," and two short video capsules: Charles' Dream and Giancarlo's Dance.
