San Diego State University
Center for the Visual and Performing Arts
Did you know that San Diego State University has a thriving arts community? Theatre, Dance, Music and Fine Arts abound at SDSU. During SDSU Month, March 2007 you can experience this culinary feast of the arts. Come to A Taste of the Arts at SDSU via trolley and get $5 off a "Trolley Pass" ticket that allows you four entrances to any Theatre, Dance, Music or Art event. Mix or Match your four entrances any way you want. Bring three friends and see a play or visit each area individually for yourself, or have a friend purchase a pass too! It's a chance to see live theatre, enjoy a musical event or view an art gallery presentation with both professionals, as well as watching the stars of tomorrow right here in your own backyard today. Many opportunities await you just a trolley ride away. Here's a sampling of the treats that await you:
