ACTIVATE Emerging Arts Leaders In 2021, Arts for LA collaborated with Emerging Arts Leaders/Los Angeles to bring a new leadership development program to the ACTIVATE suite of offerings. ACTIVATE Emerging Arts Leaders (EAL) brings together both organizations’ shared goal to prepare, educate, and inspire the next generation of arts leaders across the region, expand the field’s definition of arts advocacy and ensure it is considered an essential skill for any arts leader. The mission of EAL is to provide hands-on community organizing experience for the next generation of leaders. ACTIVATE EAL is a 9-month, stipend program where participants will: Gain leadership opportunities to organize the wider Arts for LA field through programs and events; Analyze the current needs of the Arts for LA’s community and support/align with the organizational goals through these programs; Learn how to work with an organizational budget; Expand not only their own network but also Arts for LA’s network through new partnerships, participant engagement and outreach to guest speakers; Participate in the development of our annual State of the Arts Summit. ACTIVATE Delegates ACTIVATE Delegates functions as an advocacy lab for artists, creative sector workers, or anyone interested in the intersection of advocacy and the arts.

Networking with field leaders. Meeting with local elected officials and staffers to advocate for the arts. Mobilizing community members to support key legislation.
