Beyond Supersonic: South Campus Celebration
As ArtCenter recognizes the 20th anniversary of South Campus, we’re also celebrating a monumental new chapter for the College.
We're thrilled to unveil several innovative spaces for learning that further transform a former supersonic aircraft-testing facility into a place where the next generation of artists and designers will continue breaking barriers of their own.
The opening of these state-of-the-art facilities—including the Mullin Transportation Design Center and the Mobility Experience Lab by Genesis, Hyundai & Kia—brings to life a long-envisioned plan to establish a dynamic future forward creative hub that serves as the focal point for ArtCenter’s entire South Campus complex.
Filled with student work from across ArtCenter’s disciplines, we invite you to explore these new spaces at our Beyond Supersonic celebration, featuring a robust lineup of signature ArtCenter experiences including our Design Invitational car show along with film screenings, gallery installations and panel discussions and a creative marketplace.
We look forward to seeing you at the celebration!
Join us in celebration of this momentous occasion as we go: Beyond Supersonic!
Embrace change. This is when we can most differentiate ourselves from others.
