Otis Connects: San Joaquin Valley


laton invite

A multidisciplinary art and design project was started in Fall 2008 with residents of Laton, California, a small farming community in the San Joaquin Valley.

Through this project, Otis is exploring a campus-wide, multi-level integration of several curricula within a common site, offering an opportunity for more impact within the community. This project is providing a unique learning opportunity for our interdisciplinary students and a moment for the College to reflect on our recently developed projects and programs that serve our Strategic Plan Initiative.

Otis Connects: San Joaquin Valley is a collaborative project of the Public Practice Graduate Program and the Integrated Learning Program. The project has been partially funded by the Ford Foundation.
