Citrus College, which serves Monrovia, dedicated a new $19 million, 37,000 square foot visual arts building on Sept. 6 after several years of planning and nearly two years of construction.

It features studio for drawing, painting, printmaking, digital design, transmedia, animation, mixed media and photo and video production, a 150-seat lecture hall, an art gallery, computer labs, a ceramics lab, general purpose classrooms, faculty offices and a space for Citrus College's student newspaper, the Clarion.

The three-story project was funded by Measure G, a general obligation bond measure approved in 2004 by voters in the Citrus Community College District.
