Nubya Garcia isn’t an artist you can easily classify. Is it jazz? Sure, the London-born saxophonist, composer and bandleader grew up studying the genre under the noted pianist Nikki Yeoh at Camden Music. But it isn’t until you listen to albums like 2020’s Source and 2024’s Odyssey that you hear broader creativity shining through: It’s jazz, classical, dub, R&B and whatever else Garcia wants to convey. It all comes from a place of exploration and self-study, of wanting to do all the things across all disciplines while ignoring arbitrary boxes that don’t fit. Garcia’s sophomore album Odyssey, out in September 2024 via Concord Jazz, is a majestic feat on which she blends orchestral arrangements with R&B, jazz, broken beat and dub, resulting in a grand, nuanced record that feels airy and celestial without sacrificing the groove. It’s a deeply personal offering about her trek to falling back in love with musical composition over the past four years. Visit: Nubya Garcia Nubya Garcia on Instagram and Facebook

Come chat with artist Lewis deSoto about Conquest, now installed at the San Diego Automotive Museum. With his automotive-based sculpture Conquest (2004), artist Lewis deSoto examines the relationship between his Cahuilla background and his distant ancestor (conquistador Hernando de Soto) within the context of the automotive industry, which in its branding appropriates terms, imagery, and aesthetics related to the brutal conquest of the Americas. Conquest subtly interrogates the mythologies and identities of Southern California through the lens of midcentury capitalism. Per Mr. deSoto, "Conquest is a project to trace the ironic threads of DeSoto: automobile, conquistador, myself and our culture. It proposes that the metaphor of history is a set of divergent parallel universes in which to traverse and communicate with." SDAM invites you to learn more about this amazing work at our first event in the Curator Talks series. For more information visit: engage.sdautomuseum.org Stay Connected on Facebook and Instagram

Teens explore design & woodworking with a focus on chairs! Mon through Fri, July 7 – 11 from 1 p.m. – 4 p.m. Ages 13+ years welcome! This week of Summer Camp is all about designing chairs for every body! Steffanie Dotson and Don Ostertag welcome teens for a week of chair design, building, and design exploration. Why are most chairs the same size? We’ll talk about how chairs can be made for every body, and how comfort and designs affect our bodies. We’ll be sketching designs with pencil to paper and then we’ll move into model making and prototypes of chairs. Along the way, we’ll talk about the basics of how a chair is built, the various forces, and how failures can happen when not built properly. We’ll do mock-ups with plywood to refine our designs. Depending on how many design iterations each chairmaker goes through, by the end of the week, they’ll have some fun designs, models, lots of knowledge, and hopefully built chairs to show for it. Machine and tool safety is a big part of this camp. It is intended for teens with a keen interest in woodworking, design, or making chairs. Cell phones will be put away during this camp. Teens must be at least 13 years old to participate, since we’ll be using big machines in addition to hand tools. Sorry, no adults allowed. This camp is for teens, ages 13+ years. OPTIONAL | Lunch Hour Supervision If there is a camp ending as ours begins and you need your teen transferred from another camp, let us know! Optional Lunch Hour Supervision available.
