Project Description
With support from the California Arts Council ArtHatch will be able to continue to thrive for an additional two years in downtown Escondido. Funds would be used to support rent, utilities, artist staff, our free teen arts program, and live music for our monthly receptions. During our last 20 years we have found that running a beautiful, well-loved, community driven space is easy and satisfying. The only hard part is obtaining enough funding to keep the dream alive. We would be incredibly grateful for this support from the California Arts Council and thank you for your generous time and consideration.
Organization Summary
ArtHatch provides free opening receptions for new exhibitions, Q and A artist sessions and talks, open studios, and live music free for the public 12 times per year.
We also provide 24/7 studio space for 20 local artists and exhibition space for an additional 21 artists. Additionally, we host regular monthly field trips for Escondido high schools and colleges. Lastly, we have a free in depth teen arts program for at risk teens with a focus on teens from single parent households, low income families, teens in the foster care system, and teens performing court ordered after school program hours.
