Location and Facilities


Venue

The Suraj Israni Center for Cinematic Arts holds the majority of its events in the Mosaic building auditoriums (113 and 114) located in the North Torrey Pines Living and Learning Neighborhood at UC San Diego.

Located within Sixth College directly below the Craft Center, and next to The Jeannie Hall, the auditorium entrance and lobby feature the Suraj Israni Center name and namesake imagery.

The auditorium spaces are designated classroom space during the week with the scheduling managed by the Registrar's office. The Suraj Israni Center for Cinematic Arts has scheduling and use privileges on Friday and Saturday.

 

Offices

The Center's faculty director and supporting staff hold offices in the School of Arts and Humanities Dean's Office, on the 10th floor of the Arts and Humanities Building. 

The building is part of the Ridewalk Academic Complex (RWAC) in the North Torrey Pines Living and Learning Neighborhood, and is perpendicular to the Mosiac building auditoriums.

To meet with Center management, please make an appointment in advance via email at Surajisranicenter@ucsd.edu.
