Centering the Arts in the City!

OUR MISSION

The Compton Arts Project centers art as a catalyst to build stronger communities, support local artists, and energize the tourism economy in Compton and nearby communities.

We believe in the transformative power of ART!

  • The Compton Arts Project is working with Compton stakeholders to develop a Cultural Arts District to celebrate art, artists, and culture and to energize the creative and tourism economy throughout the Compton Community Ecosystem, including nearby incorporated areas and the region.

  • The Compton Arts Project is seeking partners to realize its vision of developing a Senior Living Arts Community that will build modern, affordable housing especially for our elders who have contributed so much to society through their art and culture. The project is slated for Phase Two and will be located withing the Cultural Arts District boundaries.

  • In addition to providing resources and advocacy, The Compton Arts Project is a curator of cultural events, exhibits, workshops, and other programming across disciplines.
