Carnival of the Animals, a Group Art Exhibit

About the Event

In an age of environmental challenges, Carnival of the Animals serves as a joyful reminder of our deep connection to the natural world. Through art, we honor the creatures that inspire, teach, and awaken our wonder, celebrating their beauty and resilience while calling for their preservation.

As part of San Diego Ballet’s world premiere of Carnival of the Animals, Mandell Weiss Gallery presents a juried art exhibit celebrating wildlife through diverse artistic expressions. Featuring multigenerational voices, the exhibit captures the mystery and energy of animals, from awe-inspiring to whimsical, inviting viewers to reflect on our shared connection with all living beings.

The exhibit coincides with the ballet’s dazzling performance, featuring a Latin jazz score composed by San Diego’s celebrated trumpeter Gilbert Castellanos, performed live by the Gilbert Castellanos Quartet. This vibrant collaboration of visual and performing arts invites audiences to immerse themselves in a unique celebration of the natural world and the arts.
