ARTS approaches its 35th Anniversary, the Advisory ARTS Council was developed as part of the organization’s strategic plan to increase connections, partnerships, collaboration, and awareness within the Los Angeles arts, culture and creative community.
The Founding Council Members are composed of a diverse and accomplished group of Los Angeles professionals from various artistic disciplines, organizations, and institutions across the city. The council will play a vibrant role in guiding and enhancing P.S. ARTS initiatives.
