Vision Statement

Angels Gate Cultural Center is a place of creative discovery, exploration and enlightenment, providing the Southern California community and visitors from around the world with opportunities for enrichment and education.

The Center's potential to grow into a sustainable mid-sized institution that benefits the economic vitality of the region as a cultural landmark and an educational infrastructure is currently attracting the attention of stakeholders and funders. As a result, the Center now stands at a critical moment in its history. To achieve its potential, the organization must obtain a long-term lease from the City of Los Angeles Dept. of Recreation and Parks, and create new partnerships with major private and public funders. A capital campaign must be launched to create an exciting public space to attract visitors and serve as an educational hub. Time is of the essence, due to the condition of the Center's 65-year-old former military buildings in Angels Gate Park.
