Grab a performance at the San Diego Junior Theatre, a venue that takes pride in consistently presenting the area's top talent, and where youngsters take their thespian aspirations quite seriously.

If a picture is worth a thousand words, then get ready for a novel's worth of images at San Diego's Museum of Art and MOPA. Since 1983, MOPA, a shortened form of the museum's moniker, has been devoted to collecting, conserving and exhibiting the largest spectrum possible of various photographic mediums.

The Spanish Village Art Center not only offers you a chance to view and appreciate the work of several local and regional artists, but you can also take some of it home with you, too! Watercolors, prints, photographs, and even jewelry are all on display and most have reasonable price tags that make it easy to not only adorn your home with a unique piece of work, but you also support local art and the people who continue to create it. This center is, in a sense, a small colony of 37 working artists' studios and the building's design resembles that of a Spanish town square to give it a unique feel and flavor.
