The collection of photographs that Dr. Larry Friedman put together reflects an emotional and intimate approach. He collected work that resonated with him, that spoke to him in a profound way. He was a fearless collector interested in contemporary work that challenged the notion of what photography can be. The images shown in Legacy: Larry Friedman Collection represent a range of processes like the artfully crafted Photoshop work of Dutch artist Ruud van Empel or the platinum/palladium imagery of Japanese artist Takeshi Shikama. Date | Friday to Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Location | Museum of Photographic Arts This exhibit is available through September 11. Pay what you wich admission.

San Diego Gas and Electric customers are struggling to pay utility bills that spiked just when the demand for energy spiked in Southern California.

Have you been trying to muster up the energy to complete your creative project for a while now? Are you recently retired, perhaps, and looking to get back into that artistic hobby you always loved before LIFE took over? Or maybe you work in an artistic field, always on other people’s projects…just never on your own? This powerful, seven-week course is for novices and working artists of all types, including writers, visual artists, actors, dancers, musicians…ANYONE who recognizes their innate creativity! In a supportive and safe setting we will: • work through the chapters and exercises in The Artist’s Way • take a look “behind the scenes”–those people, places, things in both our past and present that keep us from plunging forward with our art • hold ourselves accountable to daily/weekly creative practices and (at least!) one project each that we will share at the last class • discover new processes to make us more pro-active and productive • re-discover joy, in little things, in one another, and in our day to day lives. Bring a copy of The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron and a 9″ x 11” unlined sketchbook. No previous art experience required.
