Arts Village Opens for Classes

Arts Village interior hallway

At the start of the Spring '24 semester, Irvine Valley College (IVC) opened its Arts Village for classes. The complex spanning 62,471 gross square feet consolidates the School of the Arts into three main structures: Music/Dance, Visual Arts, and Fine Arts/Gallery. The new complex is located southwest of IVC’s Performing Arts Center and adjacent to the new Parking Lot 6. A noteworthy feature of the Arts Village is its architectural design, with all buildings achieving LEED Gold equivalency.

Please join me in taking a moment to identify ways to express gratitude within our workspaces.
