Join us on Thursday, August 29, from 6-8 p.m. for an enlightening evening with our Resident Artist, Oscar Romo, as he leads a dynamic panel discussion titled DISCOVER! The Promise Zone. This event will focus on crucial notions of sustainability, featuring insights from Oscar and other renowned experts. Together, they will delve into pressing issues affecting the Promise Zone residents and brainstorm innovative opportunities for a sustainable future. The panelists will explore sustainability through the lens of four foundational domains, each integral to comprehensive sustainability knowledge, values, and practices: Interconnection within Nature: Understanding the intricate web of relationships that sustain our ecosystems. Environmental and Human Health: Examining the vital link between a healthy planet and the well-being of its inhabitants. Equity and Social Justice: Advocating for fair and inclusive solutions that uplift all community members. Movement Building and the Economy: Exploring how collective action and economic strategies can drive sustainable change. One of the fundamental principles we'll discuss is entropy—the natural tendency of systems to wear out and break down. This concept underscores the importance of sustainability, as it reminds us that without proactive efforts, structures crumble, resources deplete, and the environment deteriorates. Don’t miss this opportunity to engage with thought leaders, share your ideas, and contribute to the vibrant future of the Promise Zone.

The Nintendo Museum opens in Kyoto, Japan, today. Mario and Zelda creator Shigeru Miyamoto never expected the company to make the museum, since it has an ethos of letting its games speak for themselves.

The Hausmann Quartet and Maritime Museum of San Diego partner to present the ninth season of Haydn Voyages: Music at the Maritime, a quarterly concert series performed aboard one of the Museum’s historic world-class vessels, the 1898 steam ferryboat Berkeley that operated for 60 years on San Francisco Bay. All concerts are Sundays at 2:30 p.m., and include an intermission for a total length of under two hours. Each creative program will also include informative and entertaining commentary between selections from noted UC Santa Barbara musicologist Derek Katz. The Hausmann Quartet would like to recognize the support of pH Projects, The Conrad Prebys Foundation and the City of San Diego Commission for Arts and Culture. KPBS is the exclusive media sponsor. The study in contrasts that is September’s program will feature the first performance of a work by Johannes Brahms on the Haydn Voyages series, as his final string quartet (opus 67) anchors a program filled with exciting variety, a characteristic we’ve come to expect and appreciate in Haydn’s work; his opus 55, no. 3 on this program certainly offers its share. The afternoon will open with This is It, a 2023 work by Reena Esmail in which she asks “asks the musicians to explore being present with one another…Each movement opens up a tiny, mutually created universe for just a few precious breaths.” Visit: Haydn Voyages Maritime Museum of San Diego on Instagram and Facebook
