Discover the vibrant and extensive world of art in the community at The Claremont Colleges Art Walk and Mixer, hosted by Claremont Graduate University. Join us for a tour through the beautiful campuses of Pomona College, Claremont Graduate University, Scripps College, and Claremont McKenna College, and marvel at the wealth of public art.

Highlights include the historic “Meet in the Middle” by Chris Burden, the artist who brought LACMA the iconic “Urban Light” streetlight assemblage, and the mesmerizing “Skyspace” by James Turrell, whose work with light has been featured in the Guggenheim Museum, among other illustrious locations.

As the evening unfolds, we invite you to mingle and connect during a light mixer in the university’s picturesque backyard. This event is open to anyone pursuing graduate school, whether you’re already admitted, still working on your application, or just beginning to discover your graduate education options. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience the intersection of art and academia at the historic Claremont Colleges.
