The San Diego Art Institute’s “Museum of the Living Artist”, with its main gallery located in historic Balboa Park, is a Center for the Visual Arts for the Southern California /Baja California region. The institute functions much like a municipal gallery for the city/county. It is their vision to promote San Diego as a living arts community that fully integrates visual arts into everyday life through their three-fold mission of Education, Exhibition, and Outreach.
