We’re proud to work with groups like @CreateNow, who are bringing amazing opportunities to kids who don’t get them often enough. From music to painting and graphic design, loved seeing what these gifted and passionate young artists are creating!

The DCA family mourns the passing of Create Now Founder, Jill Gurr. Jill dedicated her life to the underserved young people of Los Angeles by providing arts programs and opportunities. Her passion and vision are an example for us all. May she rest in peace.

Create Now's "Inspiration to Publication" program allows low-income youth to write their own stories through poetry, articles and graphic novelettes. Students receive actual books of their writing they can share and treasure. #creativewriting #bookpublishing

Thanks to the @calarts and the @mbirdfoundation for their support of "Create a Show" at Logan Academy for Global Ecology where dozens of low-income kids got to sing, dance and play guitar. They performed at two events! Watch this short video. youtu.be/OTtBALANQYQ
