La Jolla Playhouse’s annual WithOut Walls Festival goes digital! Among seven digital pieces, the most recent offering is Walks of Life. As you listen to the free piece available here, take a walk through your neighborhood imagining the lives of the people inside the homes.

Virtual San Diego County Fair

No tilt-o-whirl, but you can still enjoy many Fair traditions virtually: virtual photography exhibits, student shows, 4H and FFA auction (June 26-27), green thumb seminars, and even takeout fair food (Fridays and Saturdays in June at the Solana Gate).

Donate Food and Water to Unsheltered San Diegans

Provide food and water to more than 4,000 homeless San Diegans every day by donating to the Lucky Duck Foundation.
