Arts for LA is pleased to announce two important dates for the upcoming advocacy year. Please mark your calendars:

ArtsDay 2013 drew a massive crowd of arts advocates to City Hall on April 17 to celebrate Los Angeles's legacy of fostering arts and culture and the city's national identity as America's "Creative Capital."

If you live or work in the City of Los Angeles, please add your voice to the chorus of “Thank yous” headed to City Hall and the Mayor’s office.

Arts for LA is coordinating the delivery of emails to each city councilmember and the Mayor as part of our work on ArtsDay, to be held April 17 at Los Angeles City Hall.

Three local artists have been recognized as finalists by Arts for LA as part of our Arts Day T-shirt Design Competition. ArtsDay, scheduled for April 17, is LA’s annual celebration at City Hall of the impact of arts and culture on our communities, neighborhoods, and residents.

Arts for LA invites submissions of original artwork for use on our ArtsDay 2013 t-shirts. The shirts, donated by sponsor American Apparel, will be worn by arts advocates celebrating the contributions of arts and culture during the Los Angeles City Council meeting on April 17.
