Sony Pictures Entertainment

Thank you for coming to our 24th Annual Evening of Art! It is a pleasure to share our work with you and we are tremendously grateful for your support.

Tonight we celebrate the accomplishments of our students and recognize the challenging journey they have traveled in their young lives. We celebrate the way in which our community comes together to support them by providing access to the many resources Los Angeles has to offer.

This past year our students re-engaged in their education through our arts program in their classrooms, and they participated in programs with our cultural partners. They presented their art work at The Hammer Museum, the GRAMMY Museum, and the California African American Museum. They studied fashion at Otis College of Art & Design, visual art at Art Center, and theater with The Actors’ Gang. They job shadowed and benefited from field trips to our many creative business partners.

Our students are at highest risk of dropping out of school. Our arts program re-engages them to be curious, to love learning, to see an inspiring future.

This work takes a community of people, and we thank you for connecting with artworxLA, and for sharing your resources with our students.

Together we make a difference.

With gratitude,

Cynthia Campoy Brophy Executive Director & Founder artworxLA

GRANT C. KIRKPATRICK HONOREE

President, KAA Design A third generation Californian, Grant Kirkpatrick draws his energy and inspiration from his home state’s progressive ideals and optimistic embrace of the new. He has been the visionary force behind KAA Design, the firm he founded 25 years ago. Now known as Kirkpatrick Architects, Grant and his team continue to enjoy elevating the human spirit through the benefits and authenticity of warm contemporary residential design.

Raised in Palos Verdes, Grant earned his Bachelor of Architecture degree at USC and became a licensed architect at 24. His entrepreneurial spirit and passion for design led him to found Kirkpatrick Associates Architects just a few years later in 1988. Since then, the award-winning firm has completed projects for the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Christie’s auction house, Hugo Boss stores across the nation, master plans and renovations for the Jonathan Club, the Santa Monica Beach Club, the Manhattan Country Club, and other award winning commercial and hospitality projects.

Grant currently serves as the Vice Chairman on artworxLA’s Board of Directors. “...I’ve had the incredible fortune of having my parents remodel our house when I was 12. I was immediately taken by the whole endeavor – the oozing concrete, fresh cut wood, this guy with plans waving his arms around. I said “hey, that’s cool”. They called him an Architect and I knew right then and there that this is what I wanted to do. I never looked back. I was lucky. But many kids are not.

That drives me like you can’t believe…”

Grant Kirkpatrick is internationally recognized for his visionary approach to architecture and design. artworxLA celebrates his passion for arts education and his long term commitment to the students served by artworxLA.

SHEILA KUEHL

honorees

HONOREE

Los Angeles County Supervisor, District 3 Supervisor Sheila James Kuehl, representing Los Angeles County’s Third District, was elected on November 4, 2014, and assumed office on December 1.

She was the first woman in California history to be named Speaker Pro Tempore of the Assembly, and the first openly gay or lesbian person to be elected to the California Legislature. Kuehl served as chair of the Senate Health and Human Services Committee, Natural Resources and Water Committee, and Budget Subcommittee on Water, Energy and Transportation, as well as the Assembly Judiciary Committee. “...Creative energy is important. What is governing but the process of identifying problems and creatively finding solutions to those problems? Adrienne Rich, a favorite poet of mine, writes “politics is imagination or it is a treadmill.”

Creativity is an under-recognized, but important part of the work of government, crafting imaginative solutions to problems in people’s lives…”

We salute Supervisor Sheila Kuehl’s commitment to arts education and the upliftment of the youth of Los Angeles.

008 honorees

SOPHIA RIVKA ROSSI HONOREE

Chief Executive Officer, HelloGiggles Sophia Rossi co-founded HelloGiggles, the popular internet haven for girls of all ages, along with writer Molly McAleer and her real-life bestie, New Girl star and She and Him songstress Zooey Deschanel. She has produced and written for several hit television series, including Fox’s Glee and MTV’s The Hills and The City. Born and raised in Los Angeles, Sophia bases much of her own personal and professional vision on popular internet culture and is particularly fond of tween blogs and young artists. “...As an LA native, I feel connected to the organization instinctively, out of a desire to support my community. But as an individual and through my work with HelloGiggles, I’ve also always felt a strong connection to adolescence, and I think it’s very important to be involved in empowering our youth, giving them an opportunity to create and communicate and be heard…”

Sophia Rivka Rossi is committed to empowering women and girls everywhere. artworxLA celebrates her creative spirit and her support of our students as they voice their own creativity.

ABOUT

about artworxLA

MISSION artworxLA combats the epidemic high school dropout crisis with a long-term, sequential arts program offering students a pursuable life path that inspires them to stay in school, evolve as unique individuals

Storytelling, art, and philosophy have always been a passion of mine.

Through artworxLA, I’ve developed a voice for the content of my work. With the money I earned in internships, I was able to build a work space for myself with powerful technology and art supplies. I definitely wouldn’t be where I am today without artworxLA. — Stephen Na artworxLA Alumni Student

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.

010 about artworxLA

ABOUT

FROM HIGH SCHOOL DROPOUT TO ENGAGED GRADUATE While California’s graduation rate reached 80% for the first time in 2014, graduation rates for Los Angeles’ continuation high school students can be as low as 10%. These students are disengaged and struggling with overwhelming life circumstances that push school attendance far down their priority lists. Without a diploma, they will earn $500,000 less over a lifetime and are six times more likely to go to jail—82% of U.S. inmates are dropouts. The negative effects extend well beyond these students and their families, as the state loses $1 billion in lost tax revenues and incurs $1 billion in incarceration costs.

THE ARTWORXLA LADDER

A LADDER TO CLIMB

Level 1: Arts Workshops and Student Exhibitions

Each year, artworxLA brings a “ladder” of arts-based dropout prevention programs to approximately 650 students enrolled at 25 alternative high school classrooms 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 promising youth at risk of dropping out of high school the chance to reengage in their education and reclaim their future.

Advanced Programs Level 2: After-School Art Residencies and Leadership Development Level 3: Scholarships and College 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 artworxLA’s programmatic and administrative hub. HMAA continues to grow and evolve as a model for intensive arts education in the alternative high school setting. A Career Technical Education school with a Graphic Communications focus, HMAA provides students with programming in digital photography, graphic design, video production, music production, and animation. HMAA students regularly participate in artworxLA’s ladder of programs and recently completed summer programs with UCLA and Art Center.

In addition to workshops that focus

on digital content and 21st-century skills, HMAA provides students with interactive speaker engagements.

Professionals from creative industries inspire students to seek out creative careers and expose them to the range of jobs in the arts in Los Angeles. Since its launch, the student retention rate increased from 32% to 81%, enrollment reached capacity, and the number of graduates tripled—the largest of any of LACOE’s alternative schools. With support from artworxLA, these students can reverse course, from quitting school to achieving graduation and imagining a stable future where their creative talents are valued.

Inspired by her experiences in artworxLA dance and theatre classes, she joined Advanced Program residencies for two consecutive years at the Bootleg Theatre and earned a scholarship with Contra-Tiempo Dance Company. Each experience gave Joanna a newfound conviction toward broadening her education. Joanna is currently studying biology at Los Angeles City College, and plans on becoming a veterinarian.
