Artifakts is the multimedia project of producer and visual artist Garret Meyer, an ever-evolving creator known for blurring the boundaries between electronic styles. Founded in 2011, Artifakts has grown beyond the usual lanes of modern electronic music, pairing a forward-thinking sonic palette with a distinct visual identity that Meyer also shapes himself—making the project as much an artistic world as it is a sound.

Whether performing a live set or stepping behind the decks, Artifakts brings a dynamic, shape-shifting energy built for curious listeners and big-room moments alike.

Join the Library Foundation SD at Library Shop Mission Hills for “Professor Patrick” Office Hours. Patrick Stewart, CEO of the Library Foundation SD, will share how to advocate for the San Diego Public Library and provide insight into the City’s proposed budget cuts. Recently, San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria released his proposed City budget for Fiscal Year 2027, which will cut $6.3 million from the San Diego Public Library department, resulting in fewer operating hours, programs, and services at all 37 Library locations. “The Mayor’s draft budget devalues the priorities that San Diegans have long held important to their communities,” said Patrick Stewart, CEO of Library Foundation SD.“When public libraries are prioritized in communities, research shows that there are wide-ranging benefits from reduced crime, improved educational outcomes, and increased employment rates. This means that cuts to the San Diego Public Library are cuts to public safety, cuts to economic development, and cuts to youth success.” The FY2027 budget cuts will also impact the Library’s maintenance budget, limiting its ability to address more than $60 million in deferred maintenance needs. Last year, the $6.8 million cuts to the Library department resulted in closing all 37 Libraries on Sundays and closed 20 on Mondays. The San Diego Public Library system has experienced City budget challenges year after year. The Library Foundation plays a critical role in advocating for sustained investment in Library services and ensuring Libraries remain a priority within the city’s infrastructure. Library Foundation SD was established to support the mission of the San Diego Public Library system, helping San Diegans learn new skills, pursue lifelong goals, and improve their quality of life through access to resources, staff expertise, and community partnerships. With a vision rooted in equitable access to knowledge and opportunity, the Foundation works to ensure that libraries remain vital civic institutions at the heart of their communities. San Diegans can learn how to participate in this advocacy by learning more. Visit: https://libraryfoundationsd.org/shop Library Foundation SD on Instagram and Facebook
