East Village

Join our photo lessons in East Village, which is one of the excellent locales in the rotation of many San Diego Venus that offer terrific photo opportunities.

Venue Description:

It was not too long ago that the East Village Industrial area of San Diego consisted of not much more than abandoned warehouses and a bleak terrain of emptiness. Not surprisingly it did not take the arts community too long to locate there and for over a decade now the area is a photographer’s dream of old world factory architecture, such as the Simon Levi Building, Old Candy Factory and the relocated Shifter and Sons Building.

The new architecture reflects a commitment to blending in with the old and on every corner is the whimsy and artistic flair of the residents who now inhabit the community. A photographer can catch some great street portraiture as well as compelling angles of the old buildings, the new ones as well as a blending of the two.

Meeting Spot:

Meet at the COPA VIDA 905 J Street San Diego, CA 92101
