Parking at UC Riverside

 

The conference venue is the CHASS INTS BUILDING (Interdisciplinary Building South) and ARTS 166 (room 166, or the Performance Lab, in the Arts Building.)

 

The best place to park is Lot 1, directly across the street from the Arts Building, on Campus Drive.

 

Once you turn onto Campus Drive from University Avenue, at the traffic signal, drive forward to the kiosk on Campus Drive and purchase parking.  Request Lot 1.  Allow 10-15 minutes to flow through the parking kiosk and park your car.

 

Once parked, cross the street to the Arts Building.  Next to the loading dock on the left, you’ll see a raked walkway that leads gently up and into the ground floor plaza area of the Arts Building.  Take that walkway.  Once you reach the plaza area, you’ll see room 166/the Performance Lab diagonally to your right.  To reach the INTS Building, walk forward across the lawn for 30 seconds.
