Max Donner, San Diego Fine Arts Examiner, talks up this weekend’s December NIghts in Balboa Park, San Diego.
The best things in life are free. At least on this Friday, December 4 and Saturday, December 5. The occasion is the annual Balboa Park December Nights celebration. The special event includes free admission to Balboa Park museums both evenings from five to nine p.m.
It is also a good time for art admirers to visit their favorite museums in Balboa Park. This weekend is also your last chance to see the special exhibition of works by Picasso, Miró, and Calder at the San Diego Museum of Art, which ends December 6. The Museum of Man is hosting two art exhibitions, “Gods & Gold: Ancient Treasures From Mexico to Peru,” and “The Art of Andean Retablos: Religion, Tradition and Social Commentary.” The retablos are portable altars dating to the Spanish colonial period in Latin America in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, art treasures of great historical significance that are rarely on view. In addition, The Ordover Gallery at the San Diego Museum of Natural History is concluding its display of National Geographic photography of the Baja California coast.
