Established in 1930, ArtCenter College of Design is a global leader in art and design education. ArtCenter’s visionary approach to education is based on the college’s conservatory-like method of teaching and learning; a desire for rich, intercultural and transdisciplinary dialogue; and a mandate to provide students innovative learning and making spaces.

The PAA is funding the exhibition Dorr Bothwell: In Her Mind’s Eye which will generate exposure and create new scholarship on the life and work of Dorr Bothwell (1902-2000), a California-born artist underrecognized for her role in shaping West Coast Surrealism. The first full survey exhibition of Bothwell’s work, this project will present approximately 50 highly distinctive paintings and works on paper drawn from several different periods of her career.
