San Diego Brewers Guild Inaugural San Diego Beer Weekend
2022-06-10 | Coronado, CA, 92118, United States
San Diego Brewers Guild to Celebrate 25th Anniversary with Inaugural SD Beer Weekend June 10-12
Friday, June 10 through Sunday, June 12 is SD Beer Weekend! Celebrate by visiting a participating small and independent San Diego craft brewery.
San Diego Brewers Guild, a non-profit organization promoting local small businesses and entrepreneurs of craft beer, will celebrate its 25th anniversary with the inaugural SD Beer Weekend June 10-12. The number of independent craft brewery locations has grown to more than 150 in 2022 from only 15 in 1997, a tenfold increase.
SD Beer Weekend complements the Guild’s annual San Diego Beer Week, which will take place this year from November 4-13 with its 14th installment. San Diego County, known as The Capital of Craft™, has the most craft brewery locations among all counties in the United States.
“We simply couldn’t wait for Beer Week to celebrate such an important milestone for the Guild, its more than 150 members, and, frankly, all of San Diego,” said Executive Director Paige McWey Acers. “We are named ‘The Capital of Craft™’ for a reason and singling out this commemoration is yet another way to promote so many wonderful breweries and help get beer lovers back through their doors as we re-emerge from the pandemic.”
Participating breweries of SD Beer Weekend will sell limited-edition commemorative pint glasses with 25th anniversary artwork. Boelter, the maker of the glassware, is donating $1 of each unit sold back to the Guild.
The weekend extravaganza for the craft beer community will also feature a proprietary, exclusive hop blend named Zamba that is available to commercial brewers to make a beer of their choice for serving during SD Beer Weekend and beyond. Zamba was offered to breweries through the “SD Beer Hop Blend” program, a partnership between the Guild and BSG Craft Brewing. BSG Craft Brewing is donating 20% of each order back to the Guild.
The list of participating breweries can be found at www.sdbeer.com/sdbeerweekend.
In May of this year, 13 San Diego craft breweries won a total of 17 medals at the 2022 World Beer Cup, the largest international commercial beer competition hosted by the Brewers Association. The event took place in Minneapolis and featured more than 10,000 beers from nearly 2,500 breweries spanning 57 countries. Pizza Port Brewing Company garnered the most medals overall with five, including two gold. This was the first World Beer Cup since 2018 due to alternating years and the pandemic. San Diego breweries won just seven medals that year, thus an increase of 10 medals in 2022.
The Guild in 2021 assisted with the re-openings of its member breweries coming out of the pandemic, recommending and monitoring health and safety guidelines. The Guild’s community calendar rebounded with nearly 500 events throughout 2021. Other upcoming Guild events in 2022 include San Diego Craft Beer Con August 2 at San Diego State University and the 8th Annual Golf Tournament September 22 at Rancho Bernardo Inn.

Walking Tour of Historic Coronado
2022-03-31 11:00 - 12:30, 2022-04-07 13:00 - 14:30 | Coronado Historical Association, 1100 Orange Ave, Coronado, CA, 92118, United States
One of the best ways to experience the history of Coronado is to go on a historic walking tour. This is the secret that Coronado locals know: it takes time to sense the past. When you slow down, you have a chance to see, hear, and remember this place that Hollywood stars, princes, and presidents have enjoyed. Everywhere you look in this charming beach town, you find history. And, that history is easiest to see on foot – when you have a chance to linger in front of a tiny, shingled house, perhaps, and meet the resident as he comes out into the yard to water his roses and tells you about the multiple generations who have lived in the home. Or, when you seemingly stumble upon the magical house from which the Wizard of Oz was born.
We’re proud to host you on Coronado’s premier walking tour. Every tour purchase supports the Coronado Historical Association and its mission. Thank you for your support.
Every Sunday at 11 am & Thursday at 1 pm
Location: Coronado Historical Association,
1100 Orange Ave, Coronado, CA 92118
Admission: Adults $20 | Children (12 & under) $5

Tours are approximately 90 minutes and two miles at a comfortable pace. They are appropriate for young and old alike. Only certified service animals are allowed. This is an outdoor tour. Masks are optional for fully vaccinated persons with the booster shot, and required for those who are not.

San Diego Shakespeare Society Presents: Shakespeare Authorship Forum
2022-06-12 14:00 - 16:00 | Coronado Library Winn Room, 640 Orange Avenue, Coronado, CA, 92118, United States
For hundreds of years people have questioned whether William Shakespeare of Stratford-upon-Avon actually wrote the plays and sonnets credited under his name, in view of his limited education and experience. Mark Twain, Walt Whitman, Sigmund Freud, and Malcom X, to name a few, have expressed such doubts.
The audience will watch a 30-minute documentary, “Last Will & Testament,” which provides an overview of the question and viewpoints both from the so-called “Orthodox” school and from the doubters. The film will be followed by a discussion, led by a moderator from the San Diego Shakespeare Society, of all points of view on the topic.
The event will include a Zoom appearance by Cheryl Eagan-Donovan, a noted documentary filmmaker, who will argue in favor of a leading author candidate, Edward de Vere, Earl of Oxford, a highly educated nobleman in the court of Queen Elizabeth, who traveled extensively in Italy where so many of the plays take place.
This is a hybrid event, meaning it will take place in-person, but people can also watch and participate from elsewhere via Zoom. To do so, please register using the link below, and you will receive the Zoom link shortly before the event.

Summer Festival Jazz Concert Series featuring Daneen Wilburn, Kamau Kenyatta and Friends
2022-06-15 13:00 - 14:00 | Coronado Library Winn Room, 640 Orange Avenue, Coronado, CA, 92118, United States
Join the Library for the 2022 Summer Festival Jazz Concerts. Sponsored by the Friends of the Coronado Library and Hotel del Coronado, concerts will take place every other Friday from June 3 through August 26. Doors will open 15 minutes prior to each performance.
On Friday, June 15, Daneen Wilburn and Grammy award winning pianist/soprano saxophonist Kamau Kenyatta will bring their soulful jazz vibes to the Winn Room. Wilburn’s gospel roots will shine through and be enhanced by Kenyatta’s smooth musical stylings.

Performer Bios:
Daneen Wilburn was born and raised in San Diego, CA. She began singing at the age of three and by the time she was seven, she was the lead singer in the family band that included her talented brothers and sisters. At age nineteen, Daneen was performing at the Shrine Auditorium, in Los Angeles, CA. Her performance led to an invitation to sing at the legendary Hollywood Bowl for its Easter Sunrise Service. Soon after, she was sharing the stage with some of gospel music’s biggest names, including Darryl Coley, Edwin Hawkins and The Mighty Clouds of Joy.
In 1990, Daneen married and began a family. She decided to leave music to focus on her children, a decision she never regretted. However, in 2013, Daneen returned to the music scene, with a soldout concert, at 98 Bottles in San Diego, where she combined her gospel roots with a soulful jazz vibe. In 2014, on Jackie Robinson Day, she was invited to sing The National Anthem by the San Diego Padres. Padres’ owner, Robert Fowler, was so moved by her performance that he later asked Daneen to sing for the memorial service of Padres legend, Tony Gwynn, at Petco Park. Her rendition of “Amazing Grace” uplifted an audience of thousands that included baseball legends Reggie Jackson, Steve Garvey, Trevor Hoffman, Joe Torre, sports announcer Bob Costas. The next morning’s front page headline in the San Diego Union Tribune simply read, “Amazing Grace.” Since then, Daneen has performed for former First Lady Laura Bush, and at the wedding of soccer superstar, and gold medalist, Alex Morgan. She recorded her debut, self-titled album, produced by Grammy winner, Kamau Kenyatta, which was released in the summer of 2017.

Kamau Kenyatta is a Grammy award-winning producer and arranger. Kamau is a Teaching Professor at the University of California San Diego Music Department. He was honored with the prestigious Barbara J. and Paul D. Saltman Distinguished Teaching Award at UCSD in May 2009. Originally from Detroit, his versatility comes from his early exposure to a vast array of musical styles.
Kamau has worked with jazz greats such as Hubert Laws, Donald Byrd, Yusef Lateef, Jim Pepper, and Earl Klugh. World tours have taken him to over 20 countries and include stints with The Supremes, Carl Anderson (from Jesus Christ Superstar), Oscar Brown, Jr., SWV, Silk, the Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band and New Kids on The Block. Kamau has also collaborated with Hubert Laws in writing the score for Small Steps, Big Strides a documentary concerning the history of African-American film. He wrote and supervised music for The Dawn At My Back, a Sundance Film Festival award-winning interactive DVD-ROM memoir. In 2015, Kamau scored the film, Spirits Of Rebellion, by Zeinabu Irene Davis.
In 2016, he completed the score for the Gregory Porter biopic, Don’t Forget Your Music. The film was released in the UK in the fall of 2016. Kamau served as musical director for Blues Schoolhouse, an educational program for middle-school children, at the International House Of Blues (San Diego). In 2009, Kenyatta joined the Music Department at California State Summer School for the Arts (CSSSA). He served as Department Co-Chair from 2010-11. Destiny, a recording that showcases Kenyatta as pianist, composer and producer, was released in the spring of 2007. The Elegant Sadness, his most recent recording in the same roles was released in the fall of 2019. Kamau produced Water and Be Good for vocalist Gregory Porter on the Motema label – both were nominated for Grammy awards. In 2013, Kenyatta served as associate producer and arranger for Porter’s Blue Note Records debut disc Liquid Spirit. In February 2014, this project won a Grammy in the “Best Jazz Vocal Album” category. 2016 saw releases of his production projects included Gregory Porter’s Take Me To The Alley, Ed Motta’s Perpetual Gateways, and Steph Johnson’s Music Is Art. In February 2017, Kamau won a Grammy for his co-production and arrangements on Take Me To The Alley in the “Best Jazz Vocal Album” category. In 2018, his production of Uncovered Soul by Kathy Kosins was released. Production projects released in 2019 include a self-titled project for vocalist Daneen Wilburn and Intuition: Songs From The Minds Of Women for Alicia Olatuja. In 2020, Kamau’s production of Paulette McWilliams’ A Woman’s Story was released. His production of Allan Harris’ Kate’s Place was released in early 2021.

FILM FORUM CORONADO: "Mr. Arkadin"
2022-06-15 18:00 - 20:45 | Coronado Library Winn Room, 640 Orange Avenue, Coronado, CA, 92118, United States
Coronado Public Library, in partnership with the Coronado Island Film Festival, presents FILM FORUM CORONADO, taking place the first and third Wednesday of each month at 6 pm in the library’s Winn Room. Film expert Ralph DeLauro provides a brief introduction to each film and leads a discussion afterwards, often including pointers about how lighting or camera angles contribute to a scene’s mood or propel the story.
June 15: Mr. Arkadin (1955, 95 minutes)
One of cinema’s greatest mysteries. Orson Welles directed and stars in this baroque, globe-trotting meditation on truth and identity. Playing like a pulp-noir Citizen Kane, the film focuses on the daunting efforts of a hired American smuggler to reconstruct the murky past of financier Gregory Arkadin (Welles). Has the reclusive magnate something to hide? (Co-starring Michael Redgrave, Paola Mori and Katina Paxinou)
