San Diego City College invites everyone to their exhibit reception and events for our Kumeyaay Design Exhibit over the next two months. All events are free and all workshops are drop-in style where the Kumeyaay artists are making and good conversations can happen.

In conjunction with the San Diego and Tijuana World Design Capital designation of 2024, City Gallery at City College will host an exhibition that honors the long and rich history of Kumeyaay design and innovation on both sides of the border. The exhibition will seek to highlight the design knowledge and perspectives that the Kumeyaay have cultivated over their long history and connection to this region. The goal of the exhibition is to provide a platform for Kumeyaay creativity and ingenuity through the voices and viewpoints of Kumeyaay people.

The exhibition will be on display at City Gallery during the World Design Capital Policy Conference in November 2024. Concurrently, City Gallery will host events, open to all local communities and visitors, that delve deeper into the histories, personal stories, processes and cultural framework behind Kumeyaay design. Events will be designed to provide further context for the exhibition, meaningful community engagement, and facilitate intercultural conversations and sharing. These events will include workshops, talks and panel discussions, interactive installations, Kumeyaay artisan shop and other platforms for Kumeyaay contributors.

Check out the amazing art and meet the artists at one of the events.
