The CalArts campus establishes the backdrop for students in both the Creative Writing and Aesthetics and Politics graduate programs, who are free to utilize spaces across the Institute to foster both their individual and collaborative creative processes.
Outdoor areas and lounges provide a relaxing atmosphere for inspiration and reflection, and performance spaces across campus are ideal for readings, showcasing work to a live audience, and connecting with other artistic disciplines.
