Oceanside Museum of Art (OMA) and San Diego History Center are thrilled to present "Changing Terrain: Regional Artists Interpret Our Landscape," bringing together contemporary artists from Southern California and Baja to explore a region in constant transformation. Inspired by the exhibition presented at OMA and SDHC in 2013, this group exhibition revisits the evolving field of landscape art by Southern California-based artists more than a decade later and includes 11 artists from the original 2013 exhibition. Work by a distinguished set of invited artists is showcased along with exceptional works identified through a regional open call, highlighting the diversity of artistic voices redefining the landscape genre. Changing Terrain offers fresh perspectives on landscape, revealing how environment, culture, history, and community shape our evolving sense of place. Together, these works capture the beauty, complexity, and resilience of a border region where natural and human histories continually intersect. The exhibition opens to the public at the Oceanside Museum of Art and the San Diego History Center in Balboa Park on August 22. Curatorial Advisory Committee: Johnny Bear Contreras (sculptor and Kumeyaay public artist), Gabriel Boils Teran (visual artist and cultural agent), Katie Dolgov (Director of Exhibitions and Collections at OMA), and Tina Zarpour (Vice President of Community Engagement, Education & Collections at SDHC) To learn more about the exhibition at the Oceanside Museum of Art visit: oma-online.org/changing-terrain/ San Diego History Center on Facebook / Instagram

As artificial intelligence reshapes decision-making, cyber threats move at machine speed, regulators introduce unprecedented oversight obligations, and geopolitical uncertainty challenges long-standing assumptions, organizations are operating in an entirely new frontier of risk. Now in its 8th year, the USD Cyber Law & Risk Symposium brings together leaders from cybersecurity, law, government, insurance, risk management, technology, and academia to explore the emerging challenges defining the next era of governance, resilience, and innovation. Hosted by the University of San Diego's Center for Cybersecurity Engineering and Technology (CCSET) and School of Law, the Symposium has become one of the nation's premier forums for cross-disciplinary dialogue on cyber risk and accountability. This year's theme, The New Frontier, recognizes that organizations are entering uncharted territory. From AI-enabled vulnerabilities and product liability concerns to quantum-era risks, critical infrastructure threats, and expanding regulatory expectations, leaders must navigate a rapidly evolving landscape where traditional playbooks are no longer enough.

"Chrysanthemum" is a solo photography exhibition by visual artist Eugenia Brodsky at WRFAC Gallery (Walter Redondo Fine Art Collection). Shot on film, the series brings together cinematic, atmospheric photographs: portraits of the artist's children and dreamlike scenes, alongside landscapes and still lifes. The title comes from a haiku by Yosa Buson: "Before the white chrysanthemum the scissors hesitate a moment." At its center is the artist's eldest son on the threshold of adolescence, and that delicate moment when innocence begins to shift and time holds its breath. Opening reception: Friday, November 13, 5–8 PM. Hours: Saturday–Sunday, Nov 14–15, 12–5 PM; Monday, Nov 16, by appointment; Tuesday–Wednesday, Nov 17–18, 4–8 PM. All exhibited works are available for purchase. Free admission. Eugenia Brodsky on Instagram

Gov. Gavin Newsom signs new legislation imposing more regulations on datacenters. And a First Amendment expert talks about government efforts to restrict press access. Then, we take you inside Father Joe’s Villages' new dorm-style apartments. Next meet one retired reporter on a quest to share stories of kindness. Finally, Beth Accomando has a preview of a new songbird-soundtracked play about birders.

Two years after opening up in National City, the film photography lab has moved to Third Avenue.

It’s a problem California lawmakers are trying to address with a new law that will phase disposable nicotine vapes out of stores across the state starting in 2028. Governor Gavin Newsom signed Assembly Bill 762, which prohibits the sale of disposable vapes by 2028.

Like its protagonist, the film shoots out its goopy, mud-brown, protoplasmic feelers into the undiscovered territory of horror, but it does so too tentatively.
