AN ARTISTIC INVITATION<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We in City Heights would love to have artists move in. Many places are for rent or even for sale. Close by but more affordable. Could be a good opportunity for artists.<\/p>\n

Unable to make this highly anticipated event at my favorite Balboa Park museum, I was grateful to see your coverage by the photojournalist Cynthia Robertson. Her feature captures the passion for life that makes photography so critical to our recording its moments, its impressions, its interpretations.<\/p>\n

Grateful, too, that MOPA found a home in Balboa Park, where always excellently curated exhibits are a constant invitation. May it always be accessible. May the parking always be free, though word is Local Power Structure will have its way in building a costly parking garage behind the Sore Kees Organ, with paid parking, and a concrete freeway-style ramp to access it, doing away with the historic bridge.<\/p>\n

Woe is us! Why do we let the monied push us around and make us pay the $50 million for this \u201cimprovement?\u201d Enjoy MOPA and its wonderful \u201cpay what you can\u201d policy \u2014 while you can. Unless you can join the tourists and \u201cscooter\u201d in.<\/p>\n
