Team

We are a group of volunteers—artists, gallery employees, and other cultural workers—who love our city and our community!

We have watched as neighborhoods that are home to many of Los Angeles' artists, gallerists, and cultural workers burn to the ground in an unprecedented Santa Ana wind and fire event. Many members of our personal communities, and our broader creative communities, have lost everything.
