 Studio ACE is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to enriching lives through Arts, Community, and Education. Studio ACE was founded in 2018 by Executive Director Julia Fister who worked for many years in nonprofit arts organizations. Witnessing firsthand what the power of arts education can do for people of all ages, Julia made it her personal mission to find a way to provide affordable and accessible arts education opportunities for the North San Diego County community, and Studio ACE was born. What began as a dream is now a flourishing reality, with Studio ACE providing an array of arts education offerings through classes in their physical studio space, programs with Oceanside Unified School District, and robust partnerships with other community organizations.

 Talk about trial by fire. With the COVID-19 pandemic leading to the closure of libraries and state-of-the-art tutoring centers, MiraCosta College faculty and professional staff were forced to quickly transition their academic support services to online platforms—with nothing less than the educational success of more than 15,000 students hanging in the balance. The MiraCosta College Tutoring & Academic Support Center deftly pivoted to drop-in, one-on-one appointments, in-class help, and student success workshops—all through online platforms. The MiraCosta College Library, in addition to growing its free laptop and mobile hotspot lending program, saw its “Ask A Librarian” staff engage in more than 1,100 online chats with students seeking help with their studies—and that doesn’t include hundreds of additional sessions with non-MiraCosta College librarians available during off hours. The STEM and Math Learning centers, along with the Library and Writing Center, provide online breakout rooms for individual and group study in addition to preview and review sessions for specific courses with expanded hours to cover late nights and weekends. And the Writing Center now offers all of its services on Sunday.
