East West Bank has collaborated with LACMA for 14 years to bring world-class contemporary Asian art to U.S. audiences. As the largest art museum in the western U.S., with a collection of nearly 152,000 objects that illuminate 6,000 years of artistic expression across the globe, LACMA showcases a multitude of art histories by exhibiting and interpreting works of art from new and unexpected viewpoints that are informed by the region’s rich cultural heritage and diverse population. Their spirit of experimentation is reflected in partnerships to share collections and programs, create pioneering initiatives, and engage new audiences.
Bridging cultures
East West Bank has entered a new multi-year partnership with LACMA to support exhibitions and educational programs. The partnership also encompasses a major gift to the Building LACMA campaign.
Empowering young minds
LACMA’s Educator-Led Gallery Tours welcome thousands of students every year to see, experience and marvel at their collections. Through East West Bank’s partnership, LACMA was able to expand the program with more educators and invite more schools and students to connect with different cultures and communities through art.
