Art Center administrators, Stewart Reed and Jay Sanders, serve on the Dana Point Concours Advisory Board.
“Few brands stir emotion like Alfa Romeo,” noted Reed, “Design students here at Art Center College of Design frequently select Alfa as the focus for a project or rendering assignment….always dripping with passion!”
“It was an exciting project to be involved with and I am honored to be the first to win the Concours d’Art.” commented Narciso.
The 28th Annual Dana Point Concours d’Elegance will take place on Sunday, June 27, 2010 on the Monarch Beach Golf Links at the prestigious St. Regis resort in Dana Point, California. This year’s event will feature 100 years of Alfa Romeo and will celebrate 80 years of design from Pininfarina. The Dana Point Concours d’Elegance is a
