Throughout the country, state parks, historic sites, homes, buildings, museums, and similar institutions are struggling to continue operating. Because of general financial problems, many of these institutions are operating on a reduced schedule or in danger of closing. Some are being forced to sell off artifacts and property. Many will not weather these hard times without your help. Places Earth urges everyone to support these vital and important public resources any way you can. Please donate your treasure, time, and talent. Write to your governor and other elected officials telling them to find a way to keep state parks open. It will be your loss. Public Service Announcement | Test space for future ad if donations don't increase. |

Studio Channel Island Art Center is a sort of artist co-operative, independent of the university, operating in the corner of the campus. The center consists of several galleries, a sculpture garden, and studios where over 25 artists can be observed creating they masterpieces in paint, ceramic, stone, pastel, fiber, metal, and other materials. Exhibits change every few months and art is available for purchase.
The galleries are open Thursday through Sunday, noon to 3:00 p.m.
