📣 Today’s the day, Long Beach Gives is here! This citywide campaign is a chance to show up for the nonprofits that help Long Beach thrive, and we are proud to stand alongside so many organizations doing meaningful work across our community.

Your support helps ArtsLB continue programs that bring the arts to life across the city, from arts education and public art to this year’s inaugural Imagine28 Olympic and Paralympic grant funding.

This year has been especially tough, and our funding is stretched thin; every gift helps sustain the arts, expand opportunity, and keep Long Beach’s creative community strong.

📣 Long Beach Gives is tomorrow! This citywide day of giving is a chance to show up for the nonprofits that help Long Beach thrive, and we are proud to be part of it.

Your support helps sustain arts education for local students, public art that brings color and meaning to shared spaces, and grant funding that creates real opportunities for artists and arts organizations across our city. These programs do more than fund projects. They help create connection, belonging, and thriving communities through human creative expression.

At a time when nonprofit resources are stretched thin, every gift matters. A donation of any size helps keep the arts visible, accessible, and rooted in Long Beach.

If ArtsLB’s work has inspired you, supported an artist you love, or helped strengthen our community, now is a meaningful time to give.
