ENCINITAS
People who love the historic La Paloma Theatre in downtown Encinitas are putting together a fund-raising concert Saturday to kickstart a campaign to bring the place back to its former glory.
“It’s going to be a real long-term campaign to fix the place up,” said event organizer Danny Salzhandler of the 101 Artists Colony, mentioning that the concert will likely be the first of many.
He said the group is off to a fine start with Saturday night’s “Love the Dove” event, which will star Eagles songwriter Jack Tempchin, Celtic Thunder’s Keith Harkin, anti-folk movement pioneer Cindy Lee Berryhill and local folk luminary Darius Degher.
