Following a lengthy and at times combative process, the San Diego City Council will vote Tuesday on the fiscal year 2026-27 budget during a special session.

Guided by artworks that highlight imagery from nature and the interplay of natural light, participants will create layered compositions that build color and depth beneath white-outlined forms inspired by organic shapes. As each piece develops, the final experience is revealed through light. When held up to the sun, the layered artwork becomes illuminated allowing the imagery to glow, shift and transform in unexpected ways. Event is free and open to all ages.

"HEARTMOOR" is a dark romantic opera that blends raw performance, dance, multimedia, music, singing, absurdist theater, and pop into a hallucinatory sensory experience. Performed in both English and Spanish, the work moves through fairy-tale and telenovela logic while exploring love, desire, revenge, guilt, transformation, and queer becoming through nonlinear storytelling and surreal imagery. Part irreverent comedy and part reflective drama, "HEARTMOOR" creates a dreamlike world that draws from performance art, video art, improvisational dance, and experimental theater while remaining deeply rooted in border culture and personal mythology. This special production of "HEARTMOOR" features collaborations with distinguished guest artists whose work has helped shape San Diego's contemporary theater and dance landscape. "mysterium tremendum et fascinans" — terrifying and magnetic, overwhelming and impossible to resist. Schedule: September 25, 2026 7 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. September 26, 2026 7 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. September 27 2026 2 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. viktor_delafuente on Instagram
