LETTER FROM THE FOUNDER Dear Friends: Thank you for coming out tonight to celebrate 21 years of The HeArt Project! Your support allows us to bring rigorous and highly creative arts workshops to students who have struggled. Our city is confronted with a high school dropout crisis. The top reason students give for dropping out of high school is lack of engagement. A key engager to reinvigorating students in their education is the arts. We bring art to students in alternative education in four LA school districts. We know art works. With this knowledge, The HeArt Project and the LA County Office of Education opened the Hollywood Media Arts Academy nearly three years ago. Students who dropped out of school now come to school regularly, the school has reached capacity enrollment, and now has waiting list. We see how art works. Our school was recently selected to be one of 20 pilot programs in the “Linked Learning” initiative in California. We have established a school to college and career pathway in Art, Media & Entertainment Technology. In order to succeed, creative corporations need to be part of these pathways. We have suggested ways your company can participate on page 10. Tonight our honorees exemplify a creative pathway. We believe all good things begin with creative thinking, and that the role of the artist in our society and in education is to encourage people to see and think differently, to notice our surroundings with fresh eyes, and to challenge our perceptions. Artist Shepard Fairey has spent his life provoking, challenging and surprising us. In order for creativity to be embraced in the education system, we need support from our leadership. Dr. Arturo Delgado, LACOE’s Superintendent, is a leader who ensures that students get art. He cares deeply for our students and knows the importance of educating holistically, of creating well-rounded young people. To help form our students into creative and confident young adults, we need support from the creative industry. Humble, a multi-media production company, invests in our work. They created the animated short that we will unveil tonight to help us tell our students’ story louder and more effectively. Together, we can forge creative pathways for ALL of Los Angeles’ teenagers, and especially our HeArt Project students who have struggled. By being here tonight, you are helping us say louder, art works!
With gratitude Cynthia Campoy Brophy

SHEPARD FAIREY HONOREE Shepard Fairey has expanded the space where people participate in the arts. His work startles us out of our daily routines and encourages us to notice and contemplate our environment and our community. We honor Shepard tonight for the powerful way he communicates messages through his art that inspires us to remember the power of the arts to tell stories. By creating partnerships with artists, creative companies and education, we can together develop sustainable pathways for our students to follow, and where no student will drop out. With Shepard we remember that it starts with the artist, with the creative ideas and innovative thinking that they inspire, and we celebrate and honor him tonight.

Dr. Delgado has been a champion of the artworxLA/LACOE partnership, and a strong advocate for the need to include the arts in our students’ complete education. He has also led the effort to make our arts academy one of 20 pilot programs in the state of California to participate in the Linked Learning initiative, which creates school to college and career programs. By leading the way for our partnership to link with creative industries, Dr. Delgado is forging viable and inspiring pathways for our students to travel, and he is paving the way for us to create meaningful links to our creative industry partners. For his leadership and vision, and for his belief in the importance of bringing art to our county’s most at-risk students, we honor him tonight.

ABOUT MISSION artworxLA combats the epidemic high school dropout crisis by engaging students with a long-term, sequential arts program offering a pursuable life path that inspires them to stay in school, evolve as unique individuals and flourish as creative adults. We achieve this by: Creatively educating alternative high school teenagers with sustained arts exposure and immersion; Connecting students to a network of peers, artists, cultural partners, higher education, creative industries, and supportive adults; and Investing human and financial resources around ongoing, persistent student and alumni support.
CORE VALUES Alternative high school students are intelligent, creative and powerful people. They possess the capacity to meet the highest expectations and are full of creative impulse. Art is indispensable, enables us to communicate, and inspires an empathetic society. Cultivating effective partnerships between artists, educators and community organizations amplifies our collective impact on the students we serve. Our society is stronger and more inclusive when our students have full and equal access to its resources and can contribute their own voice. Lasting change in our students and communities requires long-term investment. Successful work in the community starts with a creative, participatory and respectful artworxLA workplace. “At a time when arts programs are being cut mercilessly at schools throughout the country, even when their importance to the educational process is proven, The HeArt Project stands as a beacon of creative excellence.” David Gere Professor, Department of World Arts and Cultures Department UCLA

ABOUT The High School Dropout Crisis One out of every four students in this country does not graduate from high school with their class. In Los Angeles County, 83% of high school dropouts are African-American or Latino and come from households living below the poverty line. A high school dropout will earn $500,000 less over a lifetime than a high school graduate and is 6 times more likely to go to jail. The negative effects of dropout extend well beyond these students and their families. Dropouts cost the state of California $1 billion in lost tax revenues and $1.4 billion in incarceration costs. Students cite disengagement as the leading in-school factor that causes them to drop out. artworxLA uses art to re-engage students and help them realize a path toward high school graduation and entry into Los Angeles County’s creative economy. A Ladder to Climb Each year, artworxLA brings a “ladder” of arts-based dropout prevention programs to approximately 650 students attending 26 alternative high school sites across L.A. County. In partnership with working artists, cultural centers, arts venues, and institutions of higher learning, our structure of progressive arts opportunities offers youth at risk of dropping out of high school the opportunity to re-engage with their education and future. The artworxLA ladder is: LEVEL 1
Arts Workshops and Student Exhibitions LEVEL 2
After-School Art Residencies and Leadership Development LEVEL 3
Scholarships and College and Career Preparation LEVEL 4
Alumni Mentorship and Support

Hollywood Media Arts Academy A Partnership between artworxLA and the Los Angeles County Office of Education Established in 2010, The Hollywood Media Arts Academy is about to complete its third academic year, and as The HeArt Project’s programmatic and administrative hub, HMAA continues to grow and evolve as a model program for intensive arts education in an alternative high school setting. HMAA students participate in HP’s ladder of programs as well as an additional eight hours a week of arts programming There are currently nine students on track to graduate this June and another five students by December 2013. Currently, HMAA’s enrollment is the highest it has ever been and the school is at capacity (50 students), with a waiting list. HMAA is now a designated Career Technical Education school, adhering to rigorous state guidelines for media arts. This year, in addition to receiving an $8,000 Perkins grant to increase technology in the classroom, HMAA and Boyle Heights were selected by LACOE to be the focus of the State of California’s Linked Learning initiative. This year LACMA chose HMAA to be part of a small program of media arts high schools focused on filmmaking in conjunction with the Stanley Kubrick exhibition. In addition, students took special field trips to The Getty Center and MIRADA studios. Students at HMAA are studying: Digital Photography, Graphic Design, Video Production and Editing, and Animation. They participate in artworxLA’s “ladder” program as well.
