Arts Enthusiast!
Summer activities seem to be winding down, but certainly not the arts! Heading into September, there’s still so much to see and do and that your calendar will be bulging. Opening on September 1, and running through November 28, an amazing art exhibit entitled “Celebrating 20 Years of UC San Diego Visual Arts Group” runs at Coronado Public Library. Mark your calendar now for September 18 and the public reception for this diverse creative display.
On September 2, the debut Autumn Concert Series performance showcases the extraordinary talents of Irving Flores, an accomplished pianist, composer, arranger, and music producer. His creative accomplishments include a “Tribute to Frank Sinatra” performed by the San Diego Chamber Orchestra, an arrangement for strings for Luis Miguel, and an orchestral arrangement for the San Diego Symphony.
September 2 also marks the opening of “Hands On A Hardbody” at the Coronado Playhouse, a musical that addresses mature, often distressing, themes such as racism, misogyny, xenophobia, suicide, and war. Beware because it does contain adult and racist language.
Coronado Island Film Festival in partnership with Coronado Public Library presents the 1959 Japanese film “Floating Weeds” on September 7. This Technicolor masterwork depicts the drama that ensues when the master of a traveling troupe of actors reunites with an old flame and their son, enraging his current mistress. Then on September 8 you won’t want to miss “Author Elena Armas in Conversation” as she discusses her new book “The American Roommate Experiment” with fellow author Lauren Billings.
