What is being done to maintain the Ellwood Building?
Art Center was awarded a $75,000 Architectural Conservation Grant from the Getty Foundation to develop a conceptual and physical plan to upgrade the Hillside Campus to current codes and energy standards while maintaining its architectural integrity. Implementing the plan will begin with relocating Graduate Studies to South Campus. Classes and offices located in the Annex will have space to occupy in the main building, and the College’s Educational Planning office can then address new use of space at the Hillside Campus and begin taking steps toward updating the building to ADA and energy standards. (The City of Pasadena requires Art Center to remove the Annex building by Fall 2009.
