From the organizers: WE Gallery is proud to introduce our inaugural exhibit, "Portraits from the Anthropocene Part I: Body, Energy, Space, Time." Body, Energy, Space and Time represent the fundamental aesthetics of dance. This exhibit explores the inextricable and conflicting relationship between the human body and the gravity of our footprint on the environment. We have entered into the “Anthropocene”—a new geologic era marked by the impact of human activity on the earth. Against the backdrop of an increasingly endangered planet, this exhibit questions what it means to be a practicing artist in this time of global existential crisis. Working in a variety of media from painting to performance to video, these works express the hope that art can raise the discussion around a more ecologically sustainable future. "Portraits from the Anthropocene Part I" is a project of WE Gallery presented in collaboration with San Diego Ballet and NTC Foundation, and will be exhibited in Mandell Weiss Gallery located in Dance Place. Featured Artists: Ellen Dieter Shahla Dorafshan Ajay Junious Linda Litteral Kathleen Kane Murrell Kathy Nida Katie Ruiz Perry Vasquez Related links: WE Gallery website

The weekends of October 21-23 and October 28-30, the brand new otherworldly theatrical production will turn, what during the day, is an innocent stroll through the artifacts and exhibits of the ancestors, into a 25-minute spine-chilling tour of the pranks and secrets of the departed at night. Student actors of Ovation Theatre will guide those brave enough through the Heritage Ranch property with tours every thirty minutes: Family-friendly less spine-tingling tours from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., and horrifyingly frightening tours for all from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Visit SDHeritage.org to buy tickets and for more information. Ticket reservations are required. Ticket prices are $20.00 for adults and $10.00 for children 10 and under.
