This Halloween, The Gondola Company brings back its popular A Haunting in Venice Cruises, running October 26–31 through the quiet canals of the Coronado Cays in San Diego Bay. Inspired by the atmospheric film "A Haunting in Venice," these evening cruises blend the relaxation of a traditional Venetian gondola ride with the mystery and charm of Halloween. Guests are escorted by masked, cloaked gondoliers while soft organ music and haunting melodies create a uniquely eerie ambiance. New for this year, guests can pre-order the dramatic Black Rose Boo-quet ($85) to enhance the mood, and are encouraged to come dressed in costume to fully embrace the theme. Larger groups can book the Haunting Caorlina Cruise, a private gondola seating up to 14 for a floating masquerade experience. Operated by The Gondola Company, this seasonal favorite is one of Southern California’s most unique and atmospheric Halloween events.

Join us for a lecture by Olivia Zen Joseph, curator of "Layered Narratives," developed during their time at Mingei as the Quilt Fellow. This talk explores how quilts from the era and firsthand accounts of Black American experiences reframe the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Exposition — the United States’ first World’s Fair. While the Centennial aimed to celebrate national identity and innovation, the lecture sheds light on the overlooked contributions and voices of Black women and the Black community, expanding understanding of this historic event through stories too often left untold. Olivia Zen Joseph is a Program Coordinator at the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Latino and the curator of "Layered Narratives: Quilted Stories of Gender & Race at the 1876 Centennial." Drawn to interpretation, history, and storytelling, they are passionate about uncovering the complex meanings and histories embedded in art and objects. Olivia entered the museum field through an internship in Collections Management and Conservation at the National Museum of African American History and Culture. Looking ahead, they plan to pursue a degree in Library and Information Science with the goal of becoming an archivist. Mingei International Museum on Facebook / Instagram
