As part of the City of Pasadena’s ongoing historic resource survey, this event is a great opportunity for residents to learn more about Pasadena’s history, engage with the City’s public art and historic preservation programs, and learn about some of ArtCenter’s extension programs (ACX) for youth.

Attendees, on Saturday morning, March 16, will be able to view displays showcasing Pasadena’s history and development, speak with local researchers and artists, and contribute to the City’s efforts to document and recognize historic resources.  In addition, ArtCenter will offer opportunities to:

• view historic materials of the Art Center’s Pasadena campuses,

• experience hands-on printing at ArtCenter’s Archetype Press,
