18th Street Arts Center

18th Street Arts Center is one of Southern California's most historic and largest alternative art organizations. Our mission is to provoke public dialogue through contemporary art making. And our vision embraces being a community which values art making as an essential component of a vibrant, just and healthy society. 18th Street's programs include residencies for Los Angeles artists and arts organizations, residencies for international visiting artists, three galleries for visual arts exhibitions, and free art events for the public.
