CalArts Community Arts Partnership (CAP)

The CalArts Community Arts Partnership (CAP), a program of the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts), links the Institute and the diverse communities of Los Angeles County through free, after-school and school-based arts programs for youth. CAP provides the youth in these communities challenging learning environments for artistic experimentation and creates access to higher education. Through these CalArts faculty-mentored programs, CAP provides CalArts students the opportunity to teach, to redefine their artistic abilities and to redefine the role of artists, arts education, and the arts in society.
