We're hosting an emergency benefit "Bohemian Bash" this Saturday, June 18 from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.at our editor's home on Mt. Helix. Come celebrate our communities' creative roots and savor summer solstice revelry at the hottest party of the season!
Last week, vandals and thieves knocked our radio show and KNSJ's station off the air, doing thousands of dollars of damage at the transmitter site on Mt. Laguna. Come help us rebuild and assure that our communities' voices will be back on the air!
Festivities at this free-spirited gathering with artists, authors, musicians, and thinkers will support nonprofit media in the public interest, local news reporting, and coverage of arts, music and culture. Hear live musical entertainment, savor delicious food and libations, enjoy comedy with Second Chances for Grace, hear poetry readings, watch San Diego Asian Artists Ensemble performers, and win fabulous prizes! Share your ideas, mingle with our Bohemian crowd, and meet the media.
Proceeds benefit KNSJ "people powered radio" and East County Magazine, both nonprofit organizations.
