Sugar Hill Arts Revival Project-Sharp
Sugar Hill Arts Revival Project
The SHARP initiative, Sugar Hill Arts Revival Project funded through the California Arts Council, allows us to revitalize and re-imagine the Sugar Hill Arts District not only as a historic preservation site and landmark destination of African-American history, arts, activism, civic engagement, leadership, and strategic vision— but also as a site of community building and urban renewal. Our collective purpose is to honor the legacy of our ancestors while sparking a renaissance in urban Los Angeles— a rebirth or revival of art, architecture, literature, culture, style, and history.
By engaging in collaborative restorative projects with key stakeholders, entrepreneurs, civic leaders, and community, we share our stories with the past as a present for our future.
Change THe Tune
We partner with Change The Tune (CTT), a 501(c) (3) founded in July of 2017. CTT dismantles inequitable systems by providing transformational learning experiences for young people ages 9-18. CTT leverages an interwoven set of creative programming that serves a variety of audiences leveraging universal culturally responsive connectors including food and music.
