Entry to the Japanese Friendship Garden and Balboa Park’s koi pond will be free today (it was needlessly damaged in 2008). Every Tuesday several museums in Balboa Park are free to local residents as a “thank you” for supporting them through your tax dollar$. On the third Tuesdays, San Diegans may visit the San Diego Art Institute, the Mingei International Museum, the Museum of Man, the SD Museum of Art and the tranquil Japanese Friendship Garden…for FREE. Enjoy!
