Santa Ana Arts District
The Grand Central Art Center run by Cal State Fullerton anchors Broadway. Set in the 1924 brick building where shoppers of yesteryear purchased notions, hats, tobacco and produce, the center today holds three galleries, a theater and a shop filled with art, jewelry and art books published by the university.
