Salt & Straw ice cream will be offering a free scoop for kids under age 16 who come to any of the shops dressed in costume on Halloween, October 31. Salt & Straw is also celebrating with its Scoops and Skulls Series, which is inspired by founders’ Kim and Tyler Malek’s grandmother’s annual Halloween parties, where she completely transformed her basement into a haunted house for all kids in the neighborhood to enjoy. The five unique flavors serve as a perfect way to satisfy your sweet tooth, incorporating housemade candies, pumpkin, and even real bugs from Don Bugito. Flavors include: The Great Candycopia — Housemade candy—inspired by Kit Kats, Reeses, Snickers, and Heath bars—folded into salted butterscotch ice cream. Jack o’ Lantern Pumpkin Bread — Pumpkin-spiced ice cream with sweet pieces of freshly-baked pumpkin bread, swaths of whipped cream cheese frosting and pinches of warming spices. Don Bugito's Creepy Crawly Critters — Matcha ice cream with toffee-brittle mealworms and crunchy chocolate crickets (yes, real bugs!) from Don Bugito, a company on a mission to change how the world sees (and eats) insects. Chocolate Champurrado with Sesame Toffee — Spiced champurrado (a masa-thickened drinking cacao) ice cream honoring the Day of the Dead with sweetly skull-popping chunks of palanqueta, a traditional Mexican-style sesame toffee, made in collaboration with food writer Paola Briseño-González to evoke the experience of dipping sesame-laden pan de muerto in warm champurrado Blackberry & Masa Tamale Sherbet (v) — A monster vegan mashup in tribute to Michoacán's tamal from the Purépecha region: half masa coconut cream sherbet, half juicy marionberry sherbet, made in collaboration with Paola Briseño-González.

We are pleased to announce two exhibitions by local emerging promising artists from Tijuana and San Ysidro, Mariel Miranda and Jon Villanueva, respectively. The exhibitions will be opening simultaneously with an opening reception on July 1, 2023, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., at The FRONT Arte y Cultura (147 W. San Ysidro Blvd, 92173) As told by artist Mariel Miranda, “El viento o el polvo, tal vez is an exhibition where I ex- plore speculative fictions at my neighborhood in Tijuana, taking a science fiction work- shop as a point of departure to investigate notions of community, labor, myths, and fu- ture.” Separately, Jon Villanueva’s exhibition, Missouri loves company, is a collection of oil paintings documenting the artists’ navigation through life, and the transition into adult- hood. The collection takes inspiration from the social patterns of human nature. Related links: The Front Arte & Cultura on Instagram

About the exhibition: UNDER THE INFLUENCE: Artists Pay Tribute to a Great Artist, Teacher and Friend The greatest teachers give us lessons that we unpack over a lifetime. Long after our time in classrooms become fond memories, their words of wisdom, generosity of spirit, and brilliant examples speak to us across time and distance. Under the Influence is our collective tribute to Walter Cotten whose exemplary teachings transcend any specific medium or discipline. For his former students who put his teachings into our respective art practices, Walter remains one of the defining voices whose influence is still being felt by those who were lucky to call him a dear friend. As a professor, he was a one-of-a-kind mentor and an enduring North Star for all of us who sought sanctuary and purpose creating art at San Diego State University. With his trusty canine companion, Ruby by his side, Walter pointed to the truth of always infusing one’s art with content. Walter preached the gospel of having something relevant to say regardless of the medium, and he shared the discoveries of his own life’s journey with a knowing smile behind a camera’s viewfinder. Walt’s resilient and creative spirit is alive in every former student who became a lifelong artist and friend. We form a circle of kindred spirits drawing creative sustenance from the same well. We are his brothers and sisters who answered the call to adventure of being an artist in our perilous times. These artworks exist in part because Walter Cotten provided the much-needed mentorship to light the way ahead. With his rigorous, honest and candid guidance, we learned to take an ongoing leap of faith by believing in ourselves and our individual talents as artists. What a mighty and beautiful gift indeed! Thank you, Walter. We love you, now and always. -- Neil Kendricks How to view: City Gallery, San Diego City College Oct. 21 - Dec 8, 2023 Opening Reception: 5-7 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 21 Gallery Hours: 12-4 p.m. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday And by appointment Artists: Jim CavoltBarbara HolmesAnna O'CainLael CorbinTerri HughesClare PutneyJohn DillemuthRichard KeelyDina RubiolioSteven DepintoNeil KendricksJason SherryJosh EggletonBessma KhalafJames SkalmanXuxhi NaungayanClayton LewallenDaniel Weiner David HewittMatt MorrisClay West Related links: City Gallery website | Instagram | Facebook

From the organizers: Laufey (pronounced lāy-vāy) is a 24-year-old, Los Angeles-based singer, composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist whose jazz songs are about young love and self-discovery. Raised between Reykjavík and Washington, D.C. with annual visits to Beijing, the Icelandic-Chinese artist grew up playing cello as well as piano and became hooked on the jazz standards of Ella Fitzgerald after digging through her father’s record collection. In 2020, while still a student at Berklee College of Music, Laufey released her debut single “Street by Street,” which went on to top the Icelandic radio charts. Following the release of her 2021 Typical of Me EP, Laufey was named Best New Artist in Jazz and Blues at the Icelandic Music Awards and hosted her own show on BBC Radio 3/BBC Sounds. Her debut full-length Everything I Know About Love, debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Alternative New Artist Album chart, and the lead single “Valentine” peaked at #1 on the Spotify Jazz Chart.
