"The Game at Hand"
340 N. Escondido Boulevard, Escondido, 92025
Cost: $5
In an effort to encourage cultural dialogue and expose and discuss deeply rooted fears, Escondido artists Larry and Debbie Kline have created a chess game serving as commentary on U.S. involvement in Middle East. One side of game features identical players clad in dark-colored burkas, the other is composed of uniquely individual pieces resembling America's cultural icons; during game it becomes evident that it cannot be played fairly. Game included in regular museum admission. 800-988-4253.
