Giving to the College of the Arts

Transforming Arts Education

The College of the Arts at California State University, Long Beach prepares students to become the creative leaders, innovators, and cultural contributors of tomorrow. Through hands-on, experiential learning across Art, Cinematic Arts, Dance, Design, Music, and Theatre Arts, we prepare graduates with the creative expertise, practical skills, and collaborative experience needed to thrive in today’s creative industries and communities.

The generosity of individuals, foundations, and corporations has a profound impact on our ability to provide transformative educational experiences, invest in innovative programs, and remove barriers to student success. Philanthropic support gives our students greater access to the tools, technology, mentorship, performances, exhibitions, and real-world opportunities that help bring their education to life. A degree in the arts not only transforms the lives of our students, it strengthens the creative economy and enriches the cultural life of the region and beyond.
