Imagining the Future: The Southern California Automotive Design Studio, Presented in Cooperation with Art Center College of Design

Southern California has been home to more automotive design studios than anywhere else on the planet. The Petersen Automotive Museum is teaming up with world-renowned Transportation Design School, Art Center College of Design to showcase the history of the local design community and its contribution to the world. Visitors will see a comparison of a 1930's studio with a modern-day studio with various examples of the creative process in 2-D and 3-D form from different points in California's rich automotive history. Design demonstrations by Art Center students will occur in the exhibit on the second and fourth Sunday of every month beginning January 11th, 2009 from approximately 10am-3pm.
