We are thrilled to announce ICA LA’s participation in WE RISE from May 7 to May 30. WE RISE, an initiative by the Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health (LACDMH), is a month-long series of free community programs, events and experiences highlighting the healing powers of art and connection during Mental Health Awareness Month. In its fourth year, WE RISE is needed now more than ever as the region emerges from the isolation of the global pandemic and continues to grapple with related stressors and racial injustice.

WE RISE / Art Rise opens on May 7 and there are public programs about each artist’s project over the weekend of May 7 and 8.
