This weekend in the arts: A Guelaguetza Festival at San Diego Museum of Art; Irving Flores, Tina Chong and Joshua White at UC San Diego Park and Market; Justin A. McHugh at Good Faith Gallery; Kevin Maloney at The Book Catapult; 'The Ferryman' at New Village Arts; Greater San Diego Music Coterie's "Scandinavian Winter"; and Broadway's "Frozen."
A study, commissioned by the San Diego city council, wanted to find out why we’re behind. It may look like there’s a lot of construction underway in San Diego, but the city is way below the estimated 13,500 new housing units a year needed to keep up with the population. Then, the Pentagon is finishing a review of its policies regarding suicide. Though the number of military suicides declined slightly last year, it remains a major problem, and the armed services are trying to address it in a number of new ways. And finally, for our weekend preview, we have music made with machines, new visual art and an indie band celebrating two great albums.
