In 2025, West End Arts District celebrates 10 years of life. Ten years of color, rhythm and movement fueled by the unwavering support of people like you. Thank you!

In 2024 we:

Produced three FREE community events - Fiesta Alameda, Blues, Brews & BBQ and Somewhere to Land featuring Bandaloop
Brought 25 volunteers together for a community art project, adding lasting color to the Taxiway
Partnered with the City of Alameda, Radium Presents and Rhythmix Cultural Works to launch a year-long climate arts initiative, Rising Tides
Supported 79 artists and musicians
Connected with 13,000 individuals from Alameda and beyond

And yet while we revel in those successes, we are also nervous about the future. With dramatic cuts in institutional and corporate funding, we are increasingly dependent on the generosity of our community to survive.

To ensure that we can continue to flourish into the next decade, we need to raise $50,000 by December 31st. Could you support our efforts? Thanks to our generous community partners: Radium Presents, Michael Lane Homes & Hawthorne Suites, every dollar you donate will be matched until we reach our fundraising goal.

Your gift will directly support the continuation and expansion of our programs in the year ahead, allowing us to serve even more people with the transformative power of the arts. The work we do is not just about presenting performances — it’s about fostering a sense of belonging, creativity, and joy within our community.

THANK YOU!
