A3C Facility Update

The Asian American Activities Center will be closed through the remainder of the Summer 2023 quarter and will re-open in Fall Quarter.  During this time, our reservation system will be down.  

Construction on our historical building will continue through November 2023, however indoor spaces will remain accessible with limitations.  We apologize for any inconveniences this may cause.

Who May Reserve Space

The Conference Room, Couchroom, and Ballroom at the Asian American Activities Center (A³C) may be reserved by registered Voluntary Student Organizations (VSOs). Priority is given to groups that affiliate themselves with the Asian American Activities Center by attending the quarterly A3C VSO Retreats and also are active subscribers to the A3C Community listserv.
