A 40-year history is much to celebrate. Our LACHSA family has a lot to reflect back on, while we dream of what the next 40 years could be for the Los Angeles County High School for the Arts.
Join the LACHSA Foundation for the 40th Anniversary Gala on Saturday, April 26th with Master of Ceremonies, Emmy-nominated actor and producer, Anthony Anderson. Your donation will support LACHSA students who are born to create today, as well as the future young student artists who will walk LACHSA’s hallways in the next 40 years.
The arts are an important part of our shared humanity every day, but especially during this time of uncertainty, rebuilding, and recovery all over LA County. Your support during this very challenging time is important to ensure that LACHSA has everything it needs to serve its public-school student artists who create, innovate, and courageously share their art with the world. LACHSA’s students, teachers, and alumni prove that this number one public high school for the arts in the nation is worth every investment.
We invite you to become inspired:
- Clear your calendar and join us on April 26th
- Gather all of your colleagues and friends
- Become a sponsor or order your tickets
- Spread the word, even if you cannot make it
- Donate awesome luxury travel, products, or experiences to our live or online auction
We greatly appreciate everyone’s generous donations.
