Join the Library for our Autumn Concert Series on Fridays from September 3 to October 21. Each concert will begin at 1 p.m. in the Winn Room. Doors will open 15 minutes prior to the performance. For this week's performance, violinist Regina Tolley will be playing romantic and popular songs from the 1920s to today. Regina Tolley is an accomplished acoustic and electric violinist based out of San Diego. She first fell in love with the violin at age nine, when she saw the local middle school orchestra perform. After years of orchestral and ensemble experiences throughout middle school and high school, she decided to pursue her passion for music at Point Loma Nazarene University, where she graduated Cum Laude with a B.A. in Music and a minor in Pre-Therapeutic Psychology. Tolley has been a session and performing musician for over 15 year with artists like Rihanna and Louis XIV, and has toured with bands locally, throughout the United States, and in Canada and Europe. When she's not performing for weddings and other events, you can find her teaching private and group lessons in her music studio, tracking live strings for bands/artists or feature films, and creating her own original songs.

With a revival of her Pulitzer-winning play Topdog/Underdog on Broadway, and her new show about COVID off-Broadway, the acclaimed playwright is still learning new things about herself.

This exhibition will be on view Sept 18, 2021 - Jan. 30, 2022 at San Diego Central Library @ Joan Λ Irwin Jacobs Common. Opening reception: Saturday, Sept. 18 from noon to 2 p.m. The opening reception will be hosted on the 9th floor Valeiras Sculptural Garden. Light refreshments will be served. About the exhibition: Clara E. Breed directed the San Diego Public Library for 42 years as a public servant advocating on numerous fronts, including the promotion of youth services, championing a child’s right to read by encouraging international and multicultural collections, undertaking an unprecedented expansion of the City’s Library system, and most significantly, advocating on behalf of the hundreds of Japanese American families that were incarcerated due to Executive Order 9066. Breed was ahead of her time in her interest to promote cultural understanding and fight prejudice. Her steadfast commitment and activism broadens our insights about the role libraries play in working toward a more equitable, diverse, and inclusionary future. "Call to Serve: Clara E. Breed & The Japanese American Incarceration" is co-organized by guest curators Susan Hasegawa, Linda Salem, and the San Diego Public Library. This exhibition was made possible by a collaboration between the City of San Diego Commission for Arts and Culture, the Japanese American National Museum, the Japanese American Historical Society of San Diego, San Diego State University, and Simmons University Archives.
