With support from the California Arts Council, INLANDIA INSTITUTE will continue to develop and foster a dynamic and successful community of artists who explore our diverse and vibrant region in word, image, and sound. We will do this using an experience-based model that creates a vertically integrated, mutually engaged, and supportive artistic environment for beginners through intermediate practitioners to professional authors.
Organization’s Core Programs and Services: Inlandia Institute is the only regionally focused nonprofit literary arts network dedicated to the Inland Empire region. Each of our five core programs supports the artistic development of the region’s writers, from beginners through intermediate practitioners to professionals. At each level, artists share expertise through workshops, professional development activities, and outreach and engagement programs, including an award-winning publications program. Inlandia Institute’s five core programs are: Children’s Creative Literacy, Adult Creative Literacy and Professional Development for Writers, Publications, Free Literary and Cultural Programs, and Literary Laureate. Celebrating the region in word, image, and sound, Inlandia is dedicated to fostering a dynamic and successful community of artists who explore our diverse and vibrant region.
