Get Inspired—
Make 2016 a Year of Great Plans & Ideas!

February 2, 2016 — Happy 2016! The start of the New Year is the perfect time to plan conferences, meetings, and events at the UCLA Luskin Conference Center (LCC). Mark your calendar for our August 2016 opening! We invite you to make plans to experience the Conference Center for yourself, including all of the diverse activities the campus has to offer. Be inspired by our comprehensive art collection that graces the interior of the Center, from artists with UCLA connections. Sample delicious Mediterranean-inspired cuisine at Plateia – the Center’s restaurant and lounge. Or see a special performance at historic Royce Hall, or perhaps join the crowd to enjoy one of UCLA’s championship team games.

Speaking of inspiration, the Center’s mission is to be a place for guests and visitors to “learn, exchange ideas, and make breakthroughs happen.” To fully integrate this focus into the Conference Center experience, each of our 25 meeting rooms feature motivational names, along with quotes from notable individuals that support an inspirational environment. See below for a few examples.

Please take a look at your 2016 calendar—and beyond—and reserve space now at the new UCLA Luskin Conference Center for your future academic, research, and professional meetings and events. In the words of Mahatma Gandhi: “The future depends on what we do in the present.”
