Grab your headphones and comfy shoes for a site-specific, immersive soundwalk that takes you on an urban odyssey exploring the built environment and natural world around La Jolla Playhouse and UC San Diego.

59 ACRES is a poetic, meditative and innovative work from Los Angeles-based artist Marike Splint offers new ways of seeing and listening as it navigates you through the physical, cultural and geographical landscapes we inhabit, in search of the extraordinary amidst the mundane.

First commissioned by La Jolla Playhouse for the 2024 WOW Festival, 59 ACRES will be available for you to explore and enjoy for free anytime during daylight hours through June 2025.

Let the Good Times Roll!

The Fleet Science Center invites guests who would benefit from a sensory-friendly experience to Accessibility Mornings. On the third Saturday of every month, visitors can enjoy admission to the exhibit galleries in a quieter setting, an hour before the museum opens to the public, and a special film screening with house lights on and a lower soundtrack volume. Visitors are welcome to stay and enjoy the museum all day.

First up, the evocative, mysterious Tangata. Tango and Ballet come together to create a world of dangerous beauty within the sensual music of Argentine composer Astor Piazzolla.

Then, Carnival of the Animals gets a new life, set to a world premiere Latin jazz score by San Diego’s own trumpeter and composer Gilbert Castellanos with the Gilbert Castellanos Quartet.  Join us on this dazzling look at the animal kingdom through the lens of Latin rhythms.
