Marc and Darlynne Menkin |\u00a0It\u2019s All\u00a0Happening<\/p>\n

We were in Balboa Park a few weeks back on a Friday night and we always like visiting the Spanish Art Center (also known as Spanish Village) around dusk.<\/p>\n

Sometimes we bring tacos or Chinese food in and it\u2019s a colorful place to have an affordable outdoor meal.<\/p>\n

That night, there was a dance show being performed by the PGK Project. We spoke briefly with Executive Director Peter G. Kalivas\u00a0and he provided some great photos. Some feature the colorful jacaranda trees.<\/p>\n

\u201cEssentially, what we do is seek community and commercial partners willing to donate or discount their space to host our performances in exchange for cross-promotion,\u201d said Kalvis, who is also the group\u2019s artistic director.\u00a0\u201cWe pick easy, fun, unexpected locations all around town ensure our performances are accessible \u2014\u00a0 ADA compliant, and easy to get to by car or public transportation \u2014 and relevant to contemporary audiences not exclusively tied to a theater space and [that are] looking for art that circulates around diverse themes, styles.\u201d<\/p>\n

Future PGK Shows will be held at the Centro Cultural de la Raza in Balboa Park, Sept. 20, 5 \u2013 10 p.m. Called PGK Dance\u2019s \u201cMediterranean Nights,\u201d the evening will celebrate 20 years of affordable world-class dance.<\/p>\n

In October they will be performing both matinees and evenings at the Lyceum Space at Horton Plaza. For more information or tickets, visit ThePGKDanceProject.org<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
