Space 4 Art's year-long convenings will gather together artists, students, arts leaders, policymakers, and other stakeholders to assess community needs and build a coalition to design a community-based, multidisciplinary Arts Center for the San Diego-Tijuana region. The community is invited to share input in the design process.

This second workshop in the series will be an interactive experience, co-hosted by Mesa College’s Museum Studies program. We will engage students to identify the needs of this next generation of arts leaders in order to inform the design and programming plans of our future Arts Center. 

The event is open to community members of all ages and walks of life, but geared towards high school and college students of all disciplines within the arts.
