From Broadway San Diego:' OCT 3 - OCT 15 2023 STILL THE WORLD’S MOST POPULAR MUSICAL Cameron Mackintosh presents the acclaimed production of Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg’s Tony Award-winning musical phenomenon, Les Misérables.

From the museum: MCASD Staff Art Showcase opens this Thursday, December 15, concurrent with Free Third Thursday (10 a.m. - 8 p.m). Every day, the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego benefits from the dedicated efforts of our staff, whether they interface with our public in the galleries, or labor behind the scenes, keeping us operational and programmed. Many of our staff members have chosen to work at MCASD because they themselves are artists. We have mounted staff exhibitions in the past, yet these shows were presented in the offices, and the audience was limited to employees. This season, we are excited to feature our staff’s artwork as a community exhibition in our Axline Court.
