At Palos Verdes Art Center/ Beverly G. Alpay Center for Arts Education, our work touches lives every day, sometimes in surprising ways. Our accomplishments could not be achieved, however, without the generous support of donors like you.

Here are just a few examples of how your support can make a difference:

  • Empowering Education: Your contribution directly supports our educational programs, giving children and adults alike the opportunity to explore art and develop their skills. From after-school art classes for local youth to workshops for seniors, your support helps us create transformative experiences for all.
  • Supporting Community Outreach: Your support enables us to engage with underserved communities, making art accessible to those who may not have the means or opportunities otherwise. Through outreach programs, we can foster inclusivity and bridge gaps in our community.
  • Sustaining our Exhibitions: Your donation will help us bring in captivating exhibitions that showcase the work of both established and emerging artists. These exhibitions not only inspire and engage visitors but also provide artists with a platform to share their stories and perspectives.
  • Enabling Innovation: Your donation helps us invest in technology and resources to adapt to the changing world. Your support allows us to stay at the forefront of artistic innovation, ensuring that we can continue to inspire and engage audiences in diverse and meaningful ways.
