Summer Movies in the Park is the largest free and family-friendly outdoor movie series in San Diego County, with dozens of hosting sites and over a hundred screenings. It launched in 2007 as a ‘take back our parks’ initiative – in sync with the County’s Live Well vision to sustain safe, healthy and thriving communities. Shows run May through October, in neighborhoods from the beach to the desert, and everything in between. Each movie event gives residents a reason to visit their local parks after dark, deterring inappropriate loitering and park use, and bringing additional safety and security to residents’ favorite locales. Events begin as early as 5 p.m., though actual movie start times are 15 minutes after sunset. Before the movie, many locations provide additional entertainment like arts and crafts, games, costume contests, music, dancing and food trucks. FAQ: What should I bring? Plan to bring chairs or blankets for your comfort. Chairs are not provided at any of our events. Also, feel free to pack a picnic and enjoy your meal under the stars! Some locations will have food available, so check the Event Specifics section of each location and date for more details. Bring a sweater or light jacket – it will cool down once the sun sets. What if it rains? In the event of rain or high winds a movie may be canceled. If it rains on the day of the movie you’re planning to attend, please contact the Parks & Recreation office to get up-to-date information on possible cancellations. Contact information for each location is in the Event Specifics section of each scheduled movie. Can I bring my dog? Many parks allow dogs as long as they remain on leash. Rules are typically listed on community boards or kiosk signs – but you may also call to confirm. Always keep a close eye and clean up after your pet. Where can I park? Most locations have ample parking or quick access to public transportation. We encourage you to check the Event Specifics section of the movie you plan to attend to see if there are any specific notes on parking.

The Case Study House Program: Then and Now Guest Speaker: Barbara Goldstein The Case Study House program, created by John Entenza, editor and publisher of Arts & Architecture magazine, was an experiment that came at the right time in the right place. The materials shortages of World War II were ending, the GI Bill helped veterans purchase new homes, and the population of California was growing. The program promoted the American Dream of home ownership while offering a vision of modern architecture and living. The houses were advertised broadly, and thousands of people flocked to visit them, admiring both their design and the contemporary furniture and modern appliances they featured. In this lecture, Barbara Goldstein, publisher and editor from 1980 to 1985, of the briefly revived Arts + Architecture, will discuss the program, her friendship with Esther McCoy who wrote extensively about the houses, and the relevance of the Case Study houses today. Enjoy a fascinating lecture, delicious brunch, live music, and unmatched ocean views! Access to MCASD's galleries also included with ticket purchase. Barbara Goldstein is an independent public art consultant and architecture critic focusing on urban design and placemaking. She was the editor of the anthology Arts and Architecture: The Entenza Years, which features a collection of Entenza's articles written during his storied tenure at the magazine. Ms. Goldstein was the Public Art Director for the City of San Jose Office of Cultural Affairs; directed the public art programs in Seattle and Los Angeles; and was editor of Public Art by the Book. She has lectured and participated in workshops on public art in the United States, Japan, China, Taiwan, Korea, Canada, the Netherlands and Abu Dhabi. She is past Chair of the Public Art Network for Americans for the Arts, and has served on the boards for ArtSpace Projects; Friends of the Schindler House; Forecast Public Art; and ZEROI: The Art and Technology Network, where she served as Chair from 2015-2020.
