Students in Environmental Design’s Sustainable Design Studio class tackled a local challenge when they were asked to reimagine how the neigborhing Arroyo Seco’s natural habitats, resources and historic sites could be preserved, enhanced and connected by a potentially extraordinary end-to-end trail system. Working with The Arroyo Advisory Group, their final concepts are on display at Padadena’s Central Library through May 25, 2018.

“The projects developed by ArtCenter’s Environmental Design Studio are somewhat provocative suggestions of how the Arroyo Seco can be reimagined and enhanced for the next generation of users,” Pasadena Mayor Terry Tornek said. “I encourage the public to visit the Central Library exhibit and see for themselves the many ways in which the Arroyo evokes inspiration in others.”
