Spanish Village Art Center (Balboa Park)

Spanish Village Art Center, created as part of the 1935 California Pacific International Exposition, is a courtyard of colorful studios and galleries in Balboa Park where local artists work, display, and sell their art. Located at 1770 Village Place, the center hosts daily demonstrations, rotating exhibits, and community arts events, and is one of San Diego's longest-running artist colonies. The complex's Spanish-style architecture and painted studio facades are a distinctive visual feature within Balboa Park.
