The thought did occur, while climbing the stairs to the balcony, “By the next concert in January, maybe the elevator will be installed.”

An air of high energy filled the lobby, where an art show, “Retro: Iconic Images From the Past,” covered the walls.

Jorge del Toro’s ceramics dated from 1974. “My high school years,” Jorge said, “when my work showed a Hispanic influence.”

One was a small jaguar perched on a gourd, another showed a Mezo-American’s features incised on the iridescent glaze. Its feet were snarling animals.

Jorge’s wife Caroline Estrada-del Toro’s black and white “Untitled” photograph showed a young woman caught between shadow and light.

“My youngest daughter,” said Carolina. “She loves to pose for me.”
