EngAGE has received a generous grant from the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors through the Los Angeles County Arts Commission. This Organizational Grant Program support will further our well-respected EngAGE in Creativity program, the community-based, multidisciplinary arts program offering college-level classes taught by teaching artists, as well as related events presented on-site at affordable apartment communities where participants live. We are grateful for this acknowledgement of the value of our program.
EngAGE recently received generous support through a 21st Century Fox Community Grant to use towards our Creativity Across Generations project. This exciting project will provide programs taught by professional teaching artists and will focus in these areas: storytelling and writing, performance, improvisational theater games, living history, radio storytelling (in conjunction with our public radio show, Experience Talks), and story-related visual arts such as story/photo quilts. The programs will culminate in a series of events, such as a Living History Storytelling Festival. Creativity Across Generations is part of our well-respected EngAGE in Creativity program which provides community-based, multi-disciplinary arts programs taught by professional artists onsite and at no cost to residents at the affordable senior and multigenerational apartment communities EngAGE serves.
