Hosted by

Zócalo Public Square columnist Joe Mathews says many California festivals have enduring cultural and economic value, but others…not so much. And he worries that California's festival glut could lead to a shakeout if our attention wanders or the economy takes even a slight turn for the worse. After all, how much fun can one state have?
