Visit ASU in LA

Learn in the heart of DTLA

When you visit the ASU California Center, you’ll see how students in film, fashion, media and design learn in the heart of downtown Los Angeles. 

The Sidney Poitier New American Film School gives students access to industry-grade facilities, including editing studios, a floor-to-ceiling green screen and Hollywood-level production technology. The Sidney Poitier New American Film School is a space built to help you develop practical skills, experiment creatively and make connections in the entertainment capital of the world.

ASU FIDM introduces fashion students to a different side of LA’s creative landscape. ASU FIDM sits in the middle of the Fashion District and offers access to professional design studios, advanced software, a multimillion-dollar textile testing lab, the largest fashion library on the West Coast and the ASU FIDM Museum’s extensive archive.

Your visit offers an inside look at these spaces, the programs based here and the paths you can pursue as a Sun Devil in Los Angeles.
