She was recently awarded the Grammy for Best Global Music Performance and is the first ever Pakistani artist to receive a Grammy Award. Iyer is one of the leading music-makers of his generation. His honors include a MacArthur Fellowship, a Doris Duke Performing Artist Award, a United States Artist Fellowship, a Grammy nomination, and the Alpert Award in the Arts. Ismaily is a multi-instrumentalist and composer. He has recorded and performed with an incredibly diverse assemblage of musicians, including Laurie Anderson and Lou Reed, Tom Waits, and Jolie Holland to name a few. Stay Connected on Social Media!

From the organizers Mass Creativity 2023 is a collective art making and community building program for San Diego communities. This year’s 11th annual Mass Creativity program titled, The Realm of Joy, is inspired by artist Wes Bruce’s, The Wonder Sound. Through Bruce’s vision of world building and activating the power of wonder and imagination, the Museum has developed a series of free community workshops that take place at seven organizations throughout San Diego County. The Realm of Joy workshops are an ode to the vibrancy of our communities and ultimately, are designed to encourage play, imagination, and collective art making. Each community workshop is crucially important in the journey to The Realm of Joy, the world that will open on Mass Creativity Day, Saturday June 24! This event will be a grand celebration of the artworks created by San Diego communities and will include music and dance performances, food vendors, and free admission to The New Children’s Museum! This year’s event will kick off with the reveal of the Museum’s new large-scale Painted Object, a beloved hands-on activity for young visitors since 1994. Inspiration for the new Painted Object was crowd-sourced by local children and selected by public vote. Event attendees will be the first to see the new life-sized sculpture, selected from three concepts – The Skate Cat, The Something, and The Loving Dragon – and be the first to splatter their own paint on it. The new Painted Object will be unveiled at 9:30 a.m. Related links: New Children's Museum on Instagram | Facebook
