AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

The Mayor's Office and The Department of Cultural Affairs (DCA) are proud supporters of the second annual Los Angeles 2012 Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Heritage Month Celebration. This celebration will promote and encourage an awareness of the significant contributions made by our City's LGBT community members in culture, education, politics, business, entertainment, technology, and the arts.

As part of this celebration we are creating the first comprehensive Los Angeles LGBT Heritage Month Calendar and Cultural Guide showcasing quality LGBT artists from across Los Angeles and listing the numerous events, exhibitions, lectures, festivals, and cultural programs related to this celebration of LGBT culture.

Poets & Writers is now accepting applications for our 2012-13 Galen
Williams Fellowship Program. The Fellowship Program is designed to
nurture future leaders in the field of literature, and especially the
nonprofit arena. This year, the Joseph F. McCrindle Foundation
Readings/Workshops Fellow will be placed in our Los Angeles office. This
ten-month, half-time, paid position, is supported through a generous
contribution from the Joseph F. McCrindle Foundation. *The deadline to
apply is June 15.* See our website for more information

“We were always friends. But as happens with family members, between
friends, our relationship was getting worn out. [...] We didn’t explain you
our things. [...] We didn’t have you as students, friends, and talkers.
[...] And we also went through dubious paths, where art and beauty, and –
what is worse to us – the worship of God – weren’t always served well. Let’s
remake the peace?”

(Pope Paul VI, Speech to Artists, 10-12).
