From the organizer: When Yury Miller started collecting paintings of Ukrainian artists, it was only for personal enjoyment and he never thought of doing an exhibition with them. Current events in Ukraine has changed that, and Yury would now like to share this small slice of Ukrainian culture to help shed light on what its people are fighting for. Paintings on display will range from pieces dating back to the 1950s up to more recently. There will be light snacks and refreshments provided. Please email to be added to our complimentary guest list to attend. Agents of Architecture (a boutique real estate firm focused on representing on modern, historic & unique properties) is hosting the event in their gallery space. A portion of the sales in their vintage modern shop will be donated to support the Ukrainian people. Related links: Agents of Architecture on Instagram

The San Diego Symphony’s Winter-Spring 2022 season continues to connect communities throughout San Diego and beyond with music featuring world-class artists. About "Beethoven, Mozart and Shostokovich": A rising star among young American conductors, Jonathon Heyward, leads the Orchestra in Dmitri Shostakovich's Symphony No. 9. Written in 1945 at the end of World War 2, this symphony was expected by the Soviet authorities to be a loud and noisy public celebration; when the composer created instead this lovely work of lightness, delicacy, charm and personal sorrow, he was roundly criticized by the political hacks. South Korean pianist Yeol Eum Son, well-known for her interpretations of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, makes her San Diego debut with one of that master's greatest concertos. Schedule • Wednesday, March 16, 7:30 p.m. at the California Center for the Arts, Escondido • Friday, March 18, 7:30 p.m. at The Village Church, Rancho Santa Fe Get tickets here!
