ArtCenter College of Design Presents KALEIDOSCOPE: A Reflection of Staff Artwork
August 28-September 22, 2026
Media Alert
ArtCenter College of Design presents Kaleidoscope: A Reflection of Staff Artwork, the fourth annual art exhibition celebrating the creative practices of ArtCenter staff.
Featuring works across a range of disciplines, materials and modes of expression, Kaleidoscope brings together the distinct perspectives of the artists, designers and makers who help shape the ArtCenter community.
A kaleidoscope transforms familiar fragments into ever-changing compositions, revealing that each shift in perspective creates something entirely new. This exhibition reflects that same spirit. Each artist contributes a unique vision. Together, their works create a dynamic mosaic of creativity, experimentation, and imagination.
Throughout the exhibition, visitors are invited to explore each new perspective and discover the richness that emerges when many distinct voices come together. Like a kaleidoscope, the view is not fixed but continually unfolding.
The exhibition is free and open to the public.
