Attorney King Aminpour Car and Motorcycle Personal Injury Attorneys presents Teddy Ball 2024. A high-energy holiday celebration that brings together San Diego's finest to make a difference in the lives of sick and underprivileged children in our community, hosted by the esteemed nonprofit organization Cruise 4 Kids. At Teddy Ball, we believe that every child deserves a little extra comfort and joy during the holiday season. That's why each guest is required to bring a new stuffed teddy bear, which we collect and distribute to multiple organizations, including Autism Tree Project Foundation, Boys and Girls Clubs of San Dieguito, Miracle Babies, Easter Seals SoCal, Promises2Kids, Father Joe's Villages, and local churches and orphanages. Your simple contribution can make a big impact in putting a smile on a child's face and spreading holiday cheer.

Once inside, you'll be immersed in a world of festivities that include a live DJ, a freestyle fashion show, dancing, confetti cannons, multiple bars, exotic cars, and a huge pile of teddy bears, affectionately called the Teddy Pit. Capture the memories walking the fashion runway, photos with Santa and Elves, indulge in the candy buffet, and strike a pose at the photo booth. For those looking for an exclusive experience, our VIP Lounge offers bottle service and a chance to mingle with fellow philanthropists and community leaders. And if that's not enough, we also have silent auctions, raffles, magicians, and more to keep the excitement going all night long!

Indigo—a varied plant family that grows worldwide and the deep, blue dye it produces—has a long and multifaceted history of cultivation, production, and distribution. "Blue Gold" combines science, craft, and history to explore this color’s complex past and present. Indigo’s beauty and ubiquity have eclipsed the unpleasant realities of its growth and manufacture, including hard labor and pollution, and its association with colonialism and slavery. As a pigment, indigo has been assigned protective properties, healing powers, and dangerous qualities that have shaped its uses in craft and the arts. The exhibition highlights the roles of botany, chemistry, medicine, ecology, and economics in indigo cultivation. Contemporary craftspeople and artists working with indigo, such as Laura Kina and Porfirio Gutierrez, address questions about the sustainability of indigo, its problematic legacies, and technological alternatives to manual processing. Closed Mondays / Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, & Sunday from 10 to 5 p.m. / Fridays from 10 to 8 p.m. Mingei International Museum on Facebook / Instagram

In Persian culture and traditions the longest and darkest night of the year is a time when friends and family gather together to eat, drink and read poetry Hafez and the Shahname or The Book of Kings until well after midnight. Fruits and nuts are eaten and pomegranates and watermelons are particularly significant. The red color in these fruits symbolizes the crimson hues of dawn and glow of life. This year, we have decided to start our Yalda celebrations a little earlier with a special preparatory event. This pre-Yalda celebration is not just a countdown; it's a chance for us to come together, to cherish the bonds of family and friendship, and to create unforgettable memories. So, mark your calendars and bring your joyful spirits! Persian Place welcomes everyone to join and celebrate this beautiful event at Oceanside Museum of Art on Nov. 5, 2023, from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. The event includes meet and greet with Maestro Norureddin Zarrinkelk ( The Father of Iranian Animation), “ A Journey to Persia” arts and crafts workshop which includes seven workshops, Persian dance, music, reading Hafez poetry and storytelling. There will be a Persian Kitchen serving Persian food and sweet. Event is free and open to all. Learn more about non-profit Persian Place, here! Persian Place on Facebook / Instagram
