PHS CAMAD Students Explore the Port of Los Angeles

Pasadena High School’s 10th-grade Creative Arts Media and Design (CAMAD) students visited the Port of Los Angeles as part of an integrated learning project exploring the Industrial Revolution, technological advancements, and the journey of products from initial concept to creation and eventual sale in the marketplace. The field trip offered students a firsthand look at the role of modern ports in global trade and the technology and logistics involved in moving goods around the world. Together, the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach handle approximately 31% of U.S. imports and exports, with an estimated 580,000 tons of cargo moving through the ports each day. Students also enjoyed an unexpected sighting of sea lions during their visit!

The Visual Arts and Design Academy (VADA) in Creative Arts Media and Design (CAMAD) at Pasadena High School is a studio arts focused program within PUSD. Students explore traditional and digital media cross curricular integrated projects and daily studio practice.
