The Casa del Prado was originally built for the 1915 fair as the Varied Industries Building and renamed the Foreign and Domestic Industries Building in 1916. Its name was changed to Food and Beverage Building for the 1935 fair. It housed the San Diego Aerospace Museum from 1963 to 1965. It was demolished in the 1960s for structural reasons and rebuilt using the original building as a model. (visit link)

The Junior Theater, which had been part of the Civic Arts Association, became an independent, nonprofit corporation in 1984. Membership in creative youth groups keeps young people off the streets and away from bad company. After sufficient rehearsal time, they put on performances, concerts and theatricals in the auditorium. Admission to which is sometimes free, sometimes paid. (visit link)
