The Art Institute of California, Los Angeles’ department of Student Affairs is dedicated to providing students with a well rounded education outside of the classroom.  Campus clubs and organizations are unique outlets where student passion meets student leadership.  Our student run clubs and organizations are diverse, exciting and creative.  Getting involved in a club or an organization is a great way for students to meet new people, get involved in their community, and build lifelong friendships.  New clubs and organizations are developed on a quarterly basis.  Clubs hold weekly meetings, have quarterly events, and meet outside of the classroom.  Please contact Josh Williams at jwilliams@aii.edu for more information.
