Where is the art scene in San Diego?

I am visiting California for the first time and will be staying in San Diego for some surfing.

I am from Brooklyn, so im used to a pretty active art social scene.

Where is the neighborhood to go to in San Diego?

best art scene? vintage shops? alt dinning?

Balboa Park has a vibrant artist’s village, which should be a great starting place for you.
