School of the Arts to Move to Civic Center?

School of the Arts (SOTA) might make the move from carefree-but-boring Twin Peaks to the gritty-yet-colorful Civic Center hood. The public performing-arts school, which bases student admission via auditions, needs $60 million to make it happen. According to the Examiner, local artsy types want the school to move closer to San Francisco's apparent arts center, "saying it would allow budding performers to mingle with and learn from San Francisco’s opera, ballet and symphony stars." (Although, not everybody is happy with the school's possible nmove.)
