Long Beach artists now have three new venues…a new performance space…new free grant workshops…and counting!
Even better–the artists themselves have input on the services and programs to be offered in an exciting, relatively new organization: the Cultural Alliance of Long Beach.
The Cultural Alliance of Long Beach, with its mission of supporting working artists of all ages and disciplines, was founded in 2012. Currently, they have free workshops; special events, including their drum circle, every weekend; AND free grant-writing classes for artists, the first Saturday of every month, from 9:00 to 11:30 a.m. (They also offer a general grant-writing class, the last two Saturdays of every month!)
Cultural Alliance Space Manager, grant writing expert and secretary Karen Reside talked about the creation of the evolving new arts organization, as well as CALB’s future plans.
Want to help them accomplish something amazing? Karen says they can use some volunteers, too!
