Have you seen graphics on a San Diego Trolley concerning something called World Design Capital?
The trolley wrap I spotted this morning celebrates the designation of San Diego/Tijuana as World Design Capital 2024!
The two border cities–San Diego, California and Tijuana, Mexico–together compose what is essentially a binational metropolis. The dynamism of these two international cities, enriched by cultural cross-pollination and collaboration, helps make our region a hotbed for new ideas. This unique dynamic helped San Diego/Tijuana achieve the title World Design Capital!
The World Design Capital website explains: By showcasing our region as a global hub for design, innovation, arts, and culture, WDC 2024 will foster lasting economic, social, cultural, civic, and environmental impact.
Numerous community initiatives are being supported by World Design Capital 2024. There are events, activations, exhibitions, projects… You can see a complete program list here.
One event is the upcoming 31st Annual San Diego Latino Film Festival. I blogged about the popular festival a few days ago here.
I’ve also blogged about the art-filled Bay to Park Paseo walking experience that is being created along Park Boulevard, connecting San Diego Bay to Balboa Park. Read my initial blog concerning it here.
There’s more to come!
UPDATE!
A couple days later I noticed World Design Capital banners have appeared downtown, too!
