A question and answer session moderated by California Arts Council Director Anne Bown-Crawford will follow.  

Sponsors include the California Arts Council; City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs; Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas, Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, Second District; Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority; City National Bank; and Moss Adams.  Media partners include Californians for the Arts, Arts for L.A., and Arts Orange County.
