Artists and designers regularly create extraordinary experiences that become the highlights of special events like Burning Man, SXSW, Coachella, and the Sundance Film Festival. Sometimes these works alight on the world's cultural capitals, through a pop-up in New York City or the Venice Biennale. But most of these works will never be enjoyed by the mainstream population that doesn't live in those cities and doesn't spend the thousands of dollars required to attend those events.
Starting this Summer in San Diego, Wonderspaces is taking experiential art on the road to new audiences. In partnership with artists from around the world, we are proud to exhibit over a dozen works for a limited run in each city.
Melanie and Jenna took photos, which I've taken from her Instagram account and posted here.
Congratulations again to Melanie's Poway Vaquero G04 team in winning the Fourteenth Annual Orange County Kickoff Classic (OCKC)! The competition was tough but they won their three group games on route to winning the group. Then in the final, they destroyed a Pateodores team that had matched their stats in group. The final's final score was 5-0!
The best part of the tournament (other than the parental "bonding" sessions after curfew) was watching the girls play better soccer in each game. The passing, communication, and teamwork improved all weekend, and that will stand the girls in good stead when the league season starts. They are moving up from the Presido League to the San Diego Development Academy level. I can't wait to see what they can accomplish this season!
Congratulations to Melanie and the Poway Vaqueros Girls U13 team on winning their bracket in last weekend's 2017 Copa de Barcelona Cup. Four games, twelve goals scored, three clean sheets, and only one goal allowed all weekend. That's domination!
After several finals appearances without a win, it's nice to finally put our hands on the trophy.
