Sound Future
The inaugural Sound Future Creative Career Expo was held on April 23rd, 2016 at one of the most inspirational spaces in San Diego County, the ARTS campus in National City. We connected youth to successful creative professionals through a series of panels, presentations, and performances. People were able to hear from those that have found ways to apply their imagination to their work!
