The most anticipated installment of San Diego Filipino Cinema’s year-long programming, the San Diego Filipino Film Festival (SDFFF) is back on its third year this fall from October 3-8, 2023. Held during Filipino American History Month in October, SDFFF is SDFC's centerpiece event that aims to raise awareness for Filipino cinema as an important art form and a powerful tool for representation, education, and entertainment. SDFFF will bring San Diego communities together to celebrate diversity, culture, and heritage through cinema with a diverse mix of narrative features, documentaries, and short films. Nurse Unseen explores the little-known history and humanity of the unsung Filipino nurses risking their lives on the frontlines while facing a resurgence of anti-Asian hate in the streets. The film unearths the colonial ties between the Philippines and the United States that has led to Filipino nurses becoming the unknown backbone of the U.S. and global healthcare systems.

The Coronado Historical Association is inviting the Coronado community to help tell and preserve a largely neglected part of the community's heritage — the history of Coronado’s African-American community. This rich history, which spans over 135 years, is largely absent from the historical record of Coronado. This history includes not just African American residents of Coronado, it also includes those who attended school or worked in Coronado, as well as those who served at Naval Base Coronado. CHA is preparing for an upcoming exhibit that will delve into this valuable history. CHA and local historians have already uncovered many important resources, including photographs, school yearbooks, and newspaper articles, however, CHA is seeking the help of community members to help us learn more about this previously under-researched part of our community history. If you have photographs, documents, or stories to share (from any period,1885-2023) please stop by CHA on Friday, October 13 for Coronado’s African American History Community Collecting Day. CHA staff and volunteers will be on hand to explain more about the exhibit and to help scan photos and capture stories. Please visit here for more information about the event!

Join us at the Autumn equinox in mediating with the aura and spiritual energy to spiritualize the bloodstream. The circulatory system is an amazing part of our anatomy. The bloodstream is the transportation system to oxygenate, nourish and protect the body. Blood helps to keep the acid-alkali balance which is essential for homeostasis. Metaphysically, the blood is a key component for the spiritual nourishment and maintenance of the body. It plays a mysterious yet important role in the healthy expression of the ego.

Noche de Gala is Corazon de Vida’s flagship fundraising event in San Diego, taking place on Saturday, November 11th, 2023, at the iconic U.S. Grant Hotel. This year’s soiree will boast a cinema-inspired theme of times past, Hollywood’s Golden Age, highlighting a time when films of the 1930’s-1960’s inspired everyone to dream big and wish upon a star. The evening is set to begin with a champagne greeting in the beautiful Bivouac Ballroom, featuring tastings of premium brand mezcal and wine, paired with period-informed live music. Exciting silent and live auctions are to be expected. A sit-down dinner and program will follow in the historic Presidential Ballroom. The event will attract over 350 caring and purpose-driven people, all bound by their desire to make a difference in the lives of children with the hope of a bright future. Vintage-inspired attire is optional. About Corazon de Vida Foundation (CDV) Since its founding in 1994, Corazon de Vida has been on a mission to end child abandonment by breaking the vicious cycle of poverty. We provide life-changing support to orphaned and abandoned children in Baja through a network of 10+ orphanages that provide a loving home to over 500 children. The orphanages we support are all located within a couple of hours from the Mexico/ San Diego border, giving us the ability to stay connected and aware of their most pressing needs. Support covers food, shelter, utilities, care, and education needs for K-12 students, as well as scholarships to university & trade school for teens that have aged out of the orphanage system. We are creating future leaders that will in turn make their communities and country better and safer for those that follow. For more information visit: e.givesmart.com

Belly up & Casbah Present Igorrr with Melt Banana and Otto Von Schirach With 2017's Savage Sinusoid, Igorrr more than proved to be a truly unique musical force - and 2020's Spirituality And Distortion cements that well-earned reputation. Slamming together disparate musical styles ranging from death and black metal to breakcore, Balkan, baroque and classical music in a manner that is as unconventional and unpredictable as it is thrilling, Igorrr are unlike any other act, and Spirituality And Distortion displays just as broad a range of emotions as sounds. "Getting stuck in only one emotion is very boring to me; life is a wide range of emotions - sometimes you're happy, sometimes you're sad, angry, pissed off, nostalgic or blown away," states mastermind Gautier Serre. "Life is not only one color. These 14 tracks are a journey through different states of mind I've been through." For more information visit: musicboxsd.com Stay Connected on Facebook
