Fulcrum Arts champions creative and critical thinkers at the intersection of art and science through programs and exhibitions, dynamic opportunities for artists, and assistance for fellow creative community-based organizations. 

Your gift to Fulcrum has an exponential impact: By contributing to our end-of-year campaign, you’ll support Fulcrum’s programs and exhibitions, and our ability to serve more than 80 additional artists and art-based collectives throughout Greater Los Angeles region.

Our programming honors the convergence of art and science and its critical role in provoking positive social change.

• The Fulcrum Incubator residency program provides mid-career visual artists with opportunities to forge deep connections to Southern California’s remarkable array of scientific, research, technological, design, and cultural assets.
• Sequencing, our online transmedia platform, commissions artists and writers to develop genre-defying web-based projects that generate critical conversations at the convergence of art, science, and social change.
• Our biennial citywide Fulcrum Festival explores the nexus of artistic and scientific inquiry through large-scale public programming, site-specific installations, exhibitions, performances, and community partnerships.
• The Emerge Fiscal Sponsorship program provides more than 80 L.A.-based artists and collectives with the necessary tools to create sustainable practices while allowing them to remain independent, dynamic, and responsive to the shifting social and economic contexts in which they live and work.

To sustain our mission, we need your support. Your donation this year will allow these, and many more programs to thrive, reaching over 50,000 people per year with affordable, excellent arts programs.
