About Normal Heights
Normal Heights is centrally located in San Diego's hills above Mission
Valley. However, access to Mission Valley from Normal Heights is limited to the
freeways, and practically speaking, Texas Street. Normal Heights integrates
mainly with Kensington to the east, University Heights to the west and City
Heights to the south. Normal Heights is known for its affordable pubs,
restaurants, coffee houses, smoke shops, antique shops, book shops, and
burgeoning arts community. The majority of "typical" neighborhood businesses are
located along Adams Avenue, with a decidedly lower-income feel along El Cajon
Boulevard.
The "Normal" part of "Normal Heights" is not a reference to mundanity, rather to
the State Normal School, the ancestor to San Diego State University, formerly
located in nearby University Heights.
The Adams Avenue Roots Festival is typically held the last weekend in April,
featuring American, Latin, British, and various other European folk styles
played live for free. The Adams Avenue Street Fair, Southern California's
largest free music festival is typically held the last weekend in September.
Both are held on Adams Avenue in Normal Heights.
Art Around Adams is a local community art event where unique and talented
artists show their work inside and outside interesting little businesses and
spaces along Adams Avenue stretching across some of San Diego's intriguing
eclectic neighborhoods: Normal Heights and Kensington. A creative element that
definitely sets this event apart is a continued commitment to performance art.
During the evening of the event Art Around Adams takes over engaging outdoor
spaces to showcase performance artists and site specific art installations.
