LA Unified School District announces an RFQ for artists for
the Central LA Area New Learning Center at the Ambassador Hotel site:
The LAUSD invites professional artists or artist teams from So Cal (LA, Orange,
Ventura, Imperial County, SB, SD, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Luis
Obispo or Kern Counties) to submit their qualifications for several art opportunities at the Central LA Area New Learning Center #1 being constructed at the site of the historic Ambassador Hotel. This innovative project will create a K-12
