During the past five years, the Art Center Car Classic has carved out a unique niche among the hundreds of annual automotive events taking place around the country. As many of the traditional concours d’elegance and car shows continue to grow larger and less personal, the Art Center Car Classic remains a focused and very special experience for the approximately 3,000 car collectors, automotive designers, Art Center alumni and design students who participate.
The Art Center Car Classic celebrates the very best in automotive design and affords the opportunity to showcase Art Center’s strong ties to industry and honor many of our noteworthy alumni. Past events have featured such sought-after speakers as alumni Syd Mead, Peter Brock, Chuck Pelly, Ken Okuyama, Chris Bangle, Shiro Nakumura, Frank Stephenson and Chip Foose, plus other noted designers like Steve Moal, Reeves Callaway, Gordon Murray and Dan Gurney.
Bringing together high caliber speakers with some of the world’s most beautiful automobiles in an intimate setting steeped with creative energy is what makes the Art Center Car Classic so special, and why it shouldn’t be missed.
Tickets are $55, with a special Early Bird discounted rate of $40 if purchased by July 1st. To purchase tickets now or for more information, please visit our
