It’s always 5 o’clock somewhere and every Thursday from 4 to 6 p.m., it’s Yappy Hour at Margaritaville Hotel San Diego’s pup-friendly rooftop oasis, 5 o’Clock Somewhere Bar. Designed for both locals and hotel guests, Yappy Hour is the perfect way to unwind with your four-legged friend, enjoy stunning views, and connect with fellow dog lovers over great drinks. Yappy Hour features a specialty dog-friendly menu with playful “barktails” including the Pawgarita, a cucumber and ice blend with a cucumber garnish, and the Pupa Colada, made with coconut purée and topped with a treat garnish. Canine snacks include the Canine Crudité with fresh veggies, the Bark Burger made with a grilled beef patty, and the Paw-lickin’ Chicken, a grilled chicken breast that’s sure to please. The final Thursday of each month brings a themed experience, with September’s event set for Thursday, September 25. This month’s “Yappy Yoga” invites guests to bring their mats for a free, upbeat rooftop yoga session led by local pup yoga instructor Amanda Joy. The event also highlights adoptable dogs from the San Diego Humane Society, with photos and information on display. The first ten dogs to arrive will receive a complimentary signature Margaritaville bandana. Looking ahead to October, Yappy Hour will take a spooky turn with a Halloween-themed celebration on Thursday, October 30. The evening will include a dog costume contest, festive treats, and photo-worthy moments, like a Halloween pup parade. In true Jimmy Buffett fashion, it’s always 5 o’Clock Somewhere, pups included. Grab your four-legged companion and head to Margaritaville Hotel for some tail-waggin' fun!

Sirāt tells the story of a man searching for his lost daughter at a rave in the Sahara Desert. Though it carries echoes of earlier cinema, nothing about this film feels derivative or secondhand.

Dive into the world of theater with our latest exhibition, "Alex Katz: Theater and Dance," and draw costume designs inspired by friends and loved ones and set designs inspired by a memorable place or somewhere that you have always wanted to visit. Reflections is an art-making workshop series designed to serve adults 55 and older. In this new 4-week art series, consider what story you want to tell through your theater-inspired artwork and take inspiration from your own life to create. Imagine yourself, your friends, and your family, each depicted in the costume designs they would wear in a play about your lives, and design a set or backdrop where a scene from your life might play out. Whether you're a beginner or experienced, these workshops offer a fun and supportive space to explore new creative possibilities! Each workshop will include an investigation of contemporary art-making techniques and materials. No prior art experience is required. Registration gives participants access to the full series (four workshops). Session Dates Session dates in this series are: Friday, September 12 and Friday, September 19 Friday, October 3 and Friday, October 10 Daily Program 10 a.m.: Gallery Discussion The conversations around the artworks in MCASD’s collection will offer stimulating input and prompts for participants as they think about creating their own artworks. 10:30 a.m.: Coffee and Mingle Refreshments and time for social interaction will take place in Museum venues that take full advantage of the beautiful oceanside location and views. 11 a.m.: Art-Making Activity The hands-on workshop will provide a forum for self-expression and developing new interpersonal connections. Weekly Program September 12 & 19: Costume Design Drawing Drawing inspiration from Katz’s costume designs, create representations of yourself and your friends or family. Consider what type of clothes each member in your group might wear–what scene will you be depicting and what type of clothes make sense in it? Will it be everyday clothes or something for a special trip or occasion? You will create your own costume designs through a combination of drawing and tracing. October 3 & 10: Set Design Drawing Create a set design drawing for the theater production of your life inspired by Katz’s set designs. Imagine important or exciting moments in your life and how these might look in a play or reimagine the event happening in a location that you long to visit. Consider whether your set design drawing will be for an interior or exterior location. What would be included in this space? Perhaps a couch or a tree. You will design these, drawing and imagining your world as a stage where costumes and sets work together to bring your theater-inspired artworks to life. Reflections is generously supported by the C.J. & Dot Stafford Memorial Trust, E. A. Michelson Philanthropy, and The Tippett Foundation.

Madison Gallery in Solana Beach will present "Four Seasons Interrupted" by internationally acclaimed Bosnian artist Radenko Milak, on view October 15 through December 15, 2025. Known for representing Bosnia and Herzegovina at the 57th Venice Biennale, Milak debuts a striking new series of 12–14 large-scale watercolors exploring climate disruption and the disappearance of seasonal rhythms. Set against the backdrop of New York City, these meticulously rendered works blur the line between painting and photography, creating a dreamlike tension between time, memory, and nature. "All these works move between fiction and reality. They resemble something familiar, scenes we seem to recognize, yet they do not truly exist. The entire series is conceived as a gap between what is real and what is imagined... a rupture where a new perception emerges," says Milak. The opening reception will take place on Saturday, November 8, from 6 p.m. – 9 p.m. RSVP is required; please call 858-523-9155 or email info@madisongalleries.com to attend.
