The San Diego Film Festival's goal is to bring much-due attention and positivity to the art of independent film making. The individuals who produce, direct, and star in the featured movies get their time and attention in the spotlight, as a plethora of parties, workshops and special events are always on the itinerary. This glamorous and glitzy event is held every year in the Gaslamp Quarter.

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.

Need a good laugh to forget the stresses of your everyday routine? Then a laugh-filled evening at the National Comedy Theatre is just for you! The venue features the best in improvisational comedy and interactive entertainment, the best of all; it is all family-friendly! The troupe does a great job of keeping their antics and impressions clean but that doesn't mean that they're not uproariously funny. Another great attribute about the theater is that there is no drink minimum like most clubs, so you can enjoy a soft drink if you like so you can clearly remember all the comedy you experienced well beyond your time in the audience.
