Art for a Cause Brings Internationally Acclaimed Fine Art to the University Club of San Diego An unforgettable evening awaits as The Wilshire Foundation, in partnership with the University Club of San Diego—one of the city’s most prestigious, invitation-only private clubs—hosts an exclusive fine art exhibition and fundraising evening on Friday, January 30, from 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. Perched high above the city with sweeping panoramic views, the University Club provides an exceptional and refined setting for this rare West Coast presentation of internationally acclaimed, award-winning works previously exhibited in New York and London. The private-club atmosphere offers guests an intimate and elevated experience designed for thoughtful engagement with art. The curated collection features contemporary and modern works created in acrylic and resin on canvas, where meticulous realism converges with atmospheric abstraction. Many pieces emerge gently from layered veils of translucency—soft washes of pigment, mist, and light—revealing compositions that feel both timeless and quietly powerful. Muted palettes are enriched with subtle vibrancy, creating an immersive quality that balances serenity with depth. The works convey a sense of stillness and introspection, offering art that whispers to the soul through refined detail, haunting beauty, and contemplative restraint. Guests will enjoy light hors d’oeuvres, inspired conversation, and a cashless bar (credit card only) within the elegant, members-only environment. Select works will be available for acquisition, with all proceeds benefiting the Wilshire Foundation’s philanthropic initiatives, supporting cultural enrichment and community impact through the arts. Hosted by the University Club of San Diego and the Wilshire Foundation, the evening reflects a shared commitment to excellence, cultural stewardship, and purposeful philanthropy.

*AT SCRIPPS RESEARCH AUDITORIUM* Next up, on Wednesday, November 19, is a return visit by the Django Festival Allstars, who will be joined by the remarkable jazz vocalist Veronica Swift. This masterful French gypsy jazz quintet returns for its first local performance since debuting on the Athenaeum series in 2016. Step into a night that feels lifted from a Parisian café and reimagined for the 21st century. The Django Festival Allstars deliver a musical experience bursting with spirit, swing, and soul in what The Wall Street Journal calls “the best jazz show in town.” Led by guitarist Samson Schmitt, son of gypsy jazz legend Dorado Schmitt, this all-acoustic ensemble of international virtuosos radiates joy and passion through blazing guitar riffs, soaring violin, dazzling accordion, and deep, grooving bass. They celebrate the music of legendary gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt who teamed with famed jazz violinist Stephane Grappelli in the 1930s and 40s to create the quintet of the Hot Club de France, which went on to become one of the most important jazz partnerships in history. Vocalist Veronica Swift made her local debut on the Athenaeum series in 2019 with pianist Benny Green. She is among the upper echelon of 21st century jazz singers because of her virtuosic brilliance, interpretive ingenuity, bracing songwriting, and keen arrangements. The Wall Street Journal wrote, “She has a miraculous voice, musical ability and technique, as well as an innate gift for entertaining a crowd.” Athenaeum Music & Arts Library on Facebook / Instagram
