MISSION

ArtsBusXpress’ mission is to ensure city and county school teachers have transportation to take students on cultural field trips to arts and science within the greater San Diego area during their K-12 school experience.

VISION

That every one of the approximately 500,000 K-12 students within the greater San Diego area has at least one field trip opportunity to a cultural event each year.
