Reception: Sunday, May 23, 2-5 p.m.

Once a year the Gallery serves as the host venue for the DCA’s City of Los Angeles (C.O.L.A.) Individual Artist Fellowships exhibition, featuring the work of the city’s best mid career artists.

Each C.O.L.A. grant recipient receives money to create new work that is showcased in a nonthematic group presentation series. This annual spring event greatly benefits general audiences and honors a selection of established and creative artists who live and work in Los Angeles.

The 2010 C.O.L.A. award recipients:
Fumiko Amano, Linda Arreola, Sean Duffy, Sam Erenberg, Mary Beth Heffernan, Jesse Lerner, Brian Moss, Michael Pierzynski, Rebecca Ripple, and Tran T. Kim-Trang.

In conjuction with the exhibition, the Municipal Art Gallery will be hosting two Conversations with the artist programs:

Saturday June 19, 2010 at 2pm
Fumiko Amano, Sean Duffy, Mary Beth Heffernan, Jesse Lerner, Brian Moss

Saturday, July 10, 2010 at 2pm

In addition DCA is producing a catalogue for international museums and libraries and a program website for global outreach to accompany the exhibition and performance series. Designed by previous C.O.L.A. fellow and graphic designer Jeff Keedy, these documentary materials promote Los Angeles as one of the most creative regions in the world.
