The Beatles/I Saw the Photograph features the Vincent Vigil collection, including sixty photographs from 1962 to 1969. The collection began quietly in 1988, when Vigil attended a Linda McCartney photo exhibit and purchased two prints. A decade later, after studying photography and Museum Studies at San Diego Mesa College, Vigil turned his passion for the 60s group into a serious collecting endeavor; his goal was to tell the story of the Fab Four through the lens of both famous and unknown photographers. Join us for a reception on Thursday, October 3, 4 – 7 pm. FREE parking on reception night on Lot 1, Park in STAFF for this event. Meet collector Vincent Vigil and listen to Beatles tunes. Exhibit runs September 30 - October 24. Gallery hours: M-Th 12 - 5 pm.
