Join Space 4 Art at the Sherman Heights Community Center on Tuesday, September 10 from 6-8 p.m. to experience a moving art exhibit featuring quilts created by January’s flood-impacted families. This community event showcases a collaborative quilt made during a healing-arts workshop led by teaching artist Yvette Roman in late August, when families used creativity to express their experiences and emotions connected to the floods. After the exhibit, families will take home the quilt pieces they contributed, serving as a lasting reminder of their collective strength. Admission is free to view the quilts, share in stories of resilience, and enjoy complimentary BBQ sliders from our friends at Clandestine BBQ.

J.T. Burke’s highly anticipated exhibition, "Paradise," makes its San Diego debut at the Mandell Weiss Gallery on October 4, 2024, offering viewers an exploration of myth and utopia. Opening as part of the San Diego Ballet’s 35th season launch event, "Overture," the exhibit promises an engaging blend of contemporary art and performance. Exhibit runs through Jan. 17, 2025. Burke draws inspiration from vintage costume jewelry, sourced from swap meets, garage sales, and forgotten drawers, transforming these discarded artifacts into luminous visions of an imagined utopia. Through intricate digital manipulation, he creates surreal compositions that blur the line between the real and the fantastical, inviting viewers to lose themselves in the intricate details where the mundane meets the mythical. The opening coincides with "Overture," the San Diego Ballet's season debut event celebrating its 35th anniversary. This free event brings together contemporary art and dance in the creative space of ARTS DISTRICT Liberty Station, with dance previews at 6:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Visit: https://libertystation.com/do/jt-burkes-paradise-makes-its-san-diego-debut JT Burke on Instagram and Facebook

Nos encontramos en medio de una crisis ambiental, y nuestro estilo de vida actual está en conflicto con los sistemas naturales que posibilitan nuestra existencia, especialmente cuando se trata de construir nuestras casas. En Baja un colectivo de bioconstructores llamado Tequio ha implementado un método milenario que podría ayudar a aliviar estas presiones ambientales. En el episodio de hoy, nos sentamos con Alex Santander, un arquitecto basado en Tijuana para hablar sobre construir un futuro que esté en armonía con el planeta. Además, nos unimos a los miembros de Tequio, Diego Larios y Miguel Ángel Pérez para una lección sobre la construcción con arcilla. Acompañanos mientras exploramos qué significa construir teniendo en mente al planeta, utilizando métodos del pasado para enfrentar los desafíos de hoy.
