The Town Hall CA48 Deserves — Even If Darrell Issa Won’t Show Up Join Indivisible North County San Diego and our powerful coalition of regional grassroots groups for a dynamic, people-powered congressional town hall—the kind Representative Darrell Issa refuses to hold. In 2025, many Republican House members—including Issa—are dodging public accountability. They’re avoiding traditional town halls because they don’t want to answer tough questions about their voting records, their ties to extremist policies, and their refusal to represent the will of their constituents. But we believe democracy demands better. That’s why Rep. Sara Jacobs (CA-51) is stepping up and standing in. In a bold act of solidarity, she’s agreed to take questions from CA48 residents, speak directly to the issues impacting our community, and help strategize ways we can pressure Darrell Issa to do his job—or get out of the way. Have something to say? Submit your questions in advance for Rep. Jacobs. Submit your questions here. Want to make change? Show up, speak out, and stand together. This event will fill up fast. Reserve your spot today—because representation isn’t optional.

Local artists and galleries in El Cajon are coming together to host the 14th Annual Alley Cat Art Walk. This free, family-friendly event promises fine art, live entertainment, boutique vendors, and more along Main Street and Rea Avenue.

The museum is also sponsoring the Alley Cat Art Walk Passport, highlighting participating businesses and galleries. Once attendees visit each business and get their Passport stamped by all, they can return to the museum to enter a raffle to win a special Olaf Wieghorst print. Other special exhibits include Bronze Sculptures at White Sage Gallery, Animal Portraits & Paint Parties at Rich Artist Studio, "Resilient Spirits" by Charlene Mosley at East County Art Association, and Eiffel Tower Paintings by Sophie’s Artists at Rob's BrewPoint.
