On the Steps at SDMA is about to transform the museum into the coolest celebration of the Wonders of Creation exhibition. We’re talking mind-blowing music, hands-on art fun, and cultural vibes—and it’s all FREE!

A Musical Adventure

DJ David Castillo’s dropping beats that’ll get you moving, Middle Earth Ensemble’s serving up magical Middle Eastern fusion, and Dramane Koné and Djelia Kadi are bringing those irresistible West African rhythms.

Then, hip-hop sensation Felukah closes the show with her amazing Arabic-English flows!

Art, Fun, and So Much More

Between dance moves, create some awesome art with the family, explore cool artist booths, and (bonus!) get free admission to check out 200+ mind-blowing pieces of Islamic art. We’re talking ancient star maps, magical manuscripts, and architectural wonders.

See you there!

On the Steps at SDMA and the Wonders of Creation exhibition is happening on Saturday, November 23, from 1 PM to 5 PM at The San Diego Museum of Art in Balboa Park (1450 El Prado). The party starts with welcome remarks at 1 PM, then it’s four straight hours of non-stop amazing performances.

See you there, San Diego!
