Directions:
DIRECTIONS TO CAMPUS/VENUE -- "MAYER 100 THEATER" in FILM SCHOOL COMM ARTS BUILDING:
405 S. to Jefferson Blvd.
Turn right onto Jefferson.
Go 3-4 miles to Lincoln (Major intersection) turn left.
2nd stop light on the hill is LMU Drive (there is huge fountain there
which is very noticeable).
Turn left into campus (only way to turn). Stop by guard gate for building
directions to MAYER 100 THEATER at School of Film and Television, and
BE SURE TO ASK WHERE PUBLIC PARKING IS AVAILABLE RELATIVE
TO THE THEATRE. Most LMU parking is reserved, but there are public lots
where space is available on a first come, first served basis.
The Film School building is officially considered the "Communication Arts"
building. But: There is a "School of Film & TV" sign on the back of the building,
which will be very apparent when you get to the top of LMU Drive, just
before the whole street splinters left and right. You will park elsewhere,
but that signage is where you will be walking back to.
You must RSVP in order to attend:
