DCA’s professional theater facilities, including the Barnsdall Gallery Theatre, Madrid
Theatre, and Warner Grand Theatre, provide
below-market rentals to the performing and
media arts community. DCA’s galleries include
the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery at Barnsdall Park, the two galleries at the Watts Towers
Arts Campus, and the Bridge Gallery at City
Hall. DCA also administers curated exhibitions
at both LAX and Ontario airports.
DCA’s Grants Administration Division
provides approximately $2.2 million annually
to nearly 300 of the city’s rich and diverse arts
and cultural organizations and individual artists. Additional special project support of more
than $1.5 million is also awarded annually.
“We fund small, medium, and large nonprofit organizations and artists across the city,
so our impact is felt far and wide,” says Olga
Garay-English, DCA’s executive director. DCA
grant–funded programs produce more than
400 free or low-cost exhibitions, classes, performances, film screenings, and festivals each
year. DCA also significantly supports artists and
cultural projects within its Public Art Division,
which is committed to the creation and maintenance of art within the public realm.
DCA’s Marketing and Development Division promotes all DCA–funded arts and cultural programming and the city’s Heritage
Month Celebrations, in addition to raising
more than $21 million over the last five years
to support DCA initiatives and facilities. The
Community Arts Division provides arts education at numerous neighborhood arts and cultural centers, theaters, and historic sites.
Examples of shining stars in DCA’s extensive program lineup are its Cultural Exchange
International (CEI) Program, providing fellowship support for international creative residencies, and DCA’s prestigious City of Los Angeles
(C.O.L.A.) Individual Artist Fellowships honoring some of LA’s best mid-career artists with
$10,000 awards, enabling them to focus on
creating new work. DCA’s Music LA Program
offers free hands-on instrumental and vocal
music classes for students in underserved areas
of the city. The Sony Pictures Media Arts Program, a DCA partnership with the California
Institute of the Arts and Sony Pictures Entertainment, teaches young people various multimedia techniques. These initiatives are all
examples of how DCA continues to support
and grow LA’s creative industries.
