Imagine being sixteen and thinking about college. Where would you even begin? What should I major in? College town or urban setting? Conservatory or research university? Where do I belong? And, how do I get started this summer? UCLA’s summer programs offer students a chance to test the waters, experiment in their art form or field of interest, and gain college-level experience.

 

 

 

 

 

 

On Saturday, March 19, more than 300 notables from the architecture, design, real estate development, construction, and entertainment industries gathered at UCLA A.UD’s satellite IDEAS campus to celebrate the UCLA Architecture and Urban Design’s role in shaping the future of architecture since its inception a half-century ago. The sold-out gala honored architect Denise Scott Brown, designer Yves Béhar, and a group of advocates who have helped preserve Palm Springs’ legacy of mid-century modern architecture.

Please consider supporting our future creative leaders with a gift today that will provide direct support to our students. The UCLA School of the Arts and Architecture offers the context and programs in which young artists, architects, designers, dancers, and scholars are at their enterprising best, expanding the potential of their creative spirit, honing their work, and exploring the depth and diversity of the arts at one of the best, most dynamic, and most accessible public arts universities in the world.

Tuition covers less than half of the real cost that UCLA Arts bears to educate a student. And, for students who need to work to cover costs of attendance, rising costs require 42 weeks of work per year, at minimum wage, to cover annual tuition. (By comparison, in 1980, a student could have earned enough to cover cost of attendance in just six weeks.) We need your help to bridge the gap between tuition and the real costs of educating our students. Invest in our future creative leaders and ensure that we can reward them for their promise. 

For more information on how you can support our students, please contact Rosalyn Kawahira, associate director of annual gifts, at (310) 825-8982 or visit arts.ucla.edu/giving.
