b"The extra $600 a week unemployment benefit under the federal CARES Act has helped over two million Californians make ends meet. Now that it's ending, nonprofits and the state look to help fill the gap. We hear from two San Diegans on how the end of the extra benefit will impact their livelihoods. Local and statewide moratoriums have kept a wave of possible evictions on hold for months. With those moratoriums expiring in the coming weeks, thousands of San Diegans could end up on the street if legislators don\\u2019t act. In San Diego art events this weekend: TwainFest kicks off a virtual festival, stories inspired by art at Lux Art Institute, youth actors present a classic, a poetry workshop with Gill Sotu and the Spreckels Organ Society continues its weekly webcasts."
