Will the Pomona YMCA be a film school?

Easily the most iconic building in town, the YMCA building is key to any downtown revitalization. According to this article, the building was sold to an international fine arts school. I keep hearing that the Y is slated to become a film school, with a sister school already operating in China. I've never been able to confirm this tho. Thanks to Frank Darrah's blog for today's photos.

This 1924 photo shows a group of children on the south side steps of the Y. It will be nice to see the building taken over by children and students once again.
