CoSA DIG ARTS EXPO
Explore with Us
Thursday, February 22
6 - 8pm
Black Box Theatre
650 D Avenue
The Coronado School of the Arts (CoSA) Digital Arts Conservatory will whisk visitors away on an exciting adventure at “Explore with Us,” a Digital Arts Expo on Thursday, February 22. It’s all happening at the Black Box Theatre at 650 D Avenue from 6-8pm.
The event will use the creative power of art to fuel a trip around the world, according to Anna Woerman, CoSA Digital Arts Conservatory Chair.
“We wanted to celebrate different countries and allow students to explore the process of creating works within these cultures,” said Woerman.
Visitors will receive a playbill/passport which they will take to each booth, getting their passport stamped as they explore. Each strand of the Digital Arts (Graphic Design, Film, Animation, and Game Design) will have their own booth themes from a different country. The countries represented include Japan, India, Mexico, and the United States.
The expo show, unlike the conservatory’s other events, is known for being hands on and interactive. The show is also entirely student-produced, with students in charge of all marketing and production. They created all the posters, built the physical sets for each booth, developed commercials and a collaborative reel of work that will be shown at the expo.
“Students are excited to demonstrate their craft, answer questions about their projects and allow visitors a unique hands-on experience,” said Woerman.
Tickets for the event can be purchased here. They are $10 for adults, and $5 for students, military and staff.

Application FAQ https://cosasandiego.com/Students/Application-and-Admission-FAQ/index.html
DID YOU KNOW? The most common way a student found out about CoSA as a school choice option is by “word of mouth” from an existing CoSA student or parent. The easiest way you can support future artists attending CoSA is by talking about CoSA with everyone you know!!!
Please share the opportunity of becoming part of our creative CoSA Community with friends and loved ones who you know and would like to support the development of student artists!
One of the most commonly share sentiment among CoSA students is that they enjoy the like-minded gathering of peers and feel prepared with real life experiences.
The CoSA Council works to bring Cross-Conservatory opportunities to CoSA students in order to build a sense of belonging and solidarity among creatives.
The CoSA Foundation Board is also working to create opportunities to build community for parents as our CoSA family population extends across San Diego County and also includes our greater Military families.
About CoSA
Coronado School of the Arts (CoSA) is San Diego County’s premier public school arts conservatory, home to 200 scholar artists grades 9 through 12, who attend the nationally ranked Coronado High School. CoSA provides an intense, pre-professional arts education to students from Coronado and from all over San Diego, who are admitted after a competitive application/audition process.
Each school day CoSA offers three or more hours of instruction, pairing young artists with educators who are also industry specialists. With a curriculum designed by professional artist/educators, students are immersed in their chosen specialty in one of six conservatories: Classical and Contemporary Dance, Digital Arts (Animation, Filmmaking, Game Design, and Graphic Design), Instrumental Music, Musical Theatre & Drama, Theatre Production, Design & Management and Visual Art. CoSA is a State of California-approved Career Technical Education program.
