Event Details
The exhibition transports the viewer into a world of hidden stories and unremembered residents of the former Rancho Guadalasca- A Mexican era land grant which stretched from Mugu Lagoon to Dos Vientos, and includes CSU Channel Islands. This ranch, more than thirty thousand acres in size, with Chumash, Spanish, Mexican, and American residents, serves as a microcosm of the past and present of Ventura County and the greater Central Coast of California. Residents of the Guadalasca invented tomols, searched for gold, farmed, raised livestock, quarried, fished, hosted movie stars, fought wildfires, survived storms and shipwrecks, and built railroads. Some celebrated the multicultural nature of the local communities; others celebrated exclusionary treatment of immigrants. Some residents committed crimes, including murder; others were victimized. Some residents were resilient in the face of adversity, others failed and left. The people and events of the Guadalasca reflect the past and present of CSU Channel Islands: the amazing, the good, the regretful and, sometimes, the bad.
Photographs, historical maps, contemporary art, ephemera, newspapers, oral histories, and artifacts are used to celebrate these people, events, and activities, linking the past to the present day.
Please come to campus and journey through space and time as you meet the residents of the Guadalasca, all of whom helped us Arrive at CI.
The exhibit is part of the official 150th anniversary celebration of the establishment of Ventura County.

Exhibition open: November 30 – December 16, 2023
Opening Reception: November 30 from 5pm – 7pm
This exhibition will celebrate creative works in non-traditional media by artists of Chinese descent that speak to the continuous exchange between East and West. We seek to generate cross-cultural comparative insights for a new understanding of Chinese art as an international force taking many forms. This exhibition expands beyond national boundaries to consider how works of art and artists have interacted across their experiences in China and the United States.
As a non-profit organization, the Association of Chinese Artists in American Academia (ACAAC) was founded in 2003 by a group of Chinese artists who teach and research in American universities. Attending the first national exhibition and symposium held at California State University, Long Beach, this group of artists came into consensus in creating a platform for sharing their artistic experiences and educational endeavors. Having been a continuation of the Association’s scholarly endeavor of the past two decades, this 2022 Forum Across the Divide is pleased to invite all ACAAC members to participate in this exhibition.
