PERFORMING ARTS CENTER

Over the decades, the city of Redlands has attracted a variety of residents which have all contributed to the unique charm it possess. Their shared pride in its small-town charm and rich history has recently attracted another generation of residents; this time urban commuters. These big city commuters appreciate the vintage town feel just as much as the well-established residents.

Currently, residents celebrate the culture they have cultivated over the years and take pride in remaining a charming and successful low profile town.

This design is tailored in a way that meshes into its context while gradually exposing layers of history, people, and land so that both those who reside in Redlands and those who often visit may enjoy its hidden charm as “The Jewel of the Inland Empire”.
