This is what life is all about! We are thankful to supporters like the TahDah Foundation for supporting our work and for supporting our youth in raising their voices and creating spaces filled with joy where they can laugh with each other.

Our Executive Director, Kyle, will be co-leading a breakout session at the 🟥 Arts for LA annual State of the Arts Summit on October 22 at the San Gabriel Mission Playhouse!!

Kyle and friends of ABG from WISL will be co-leading a session called “Young People are Not (Just) Our Future; They are Our Present: Advocacy, Accessibility, Agency, Action — Why Youth Voices Matter in the Arts.”

State of the Arts is an annual gathering of LA’s creative community to reflect, connect, and rise to action. This year’s theme—People, Power & Cultural Equity—will explore how LA’s arts, culture and entertainment sector must continue to build power through arts advocacy, organize community voices, and sustain our work in a contracting climate.

We hope to see you there!!
