Since its start, Inner-City Arts has served over 200,000 students and 10,000 teachers in the Los Angeles area. Every year, more than 5,000 elementary school students receive high-quality arts education on the Inner-City Arts campus thanks to a unique partnership with LAUSD. More than 1,000 middle and high school students engage in creative workshops at Inner-City Arts after school, on weekends, and during the summer.

Our unique approach to arts education connects students K-12 to our teaching artists as part of their school classroom or within self-select studio programs.

The Professional Development Institute provides educators and administrators with strategies for integrating creative practices into classroom curricula.

The Rosenthal Theater is a state-of-the-art performance space for innovative, diverse performance and engagement for students, artists, and the community.

"When I’m at Inner-City Arts, I feel like I’m in a secure place in which I am not judged and am able to be myself."
