Three local artists have been recognized as finalists by Arts for LA as part of our Arts Day T-shirt Design Competition. ArtsDay, scheduled for April 17, is LA’s annual celebration at City Hall of the impact of arts and culture on our communities, neighborhoods, and residents.

Arts for LA invites submissions of original artwork for use on our ArtsDay 2013 t-shirts. The shirts, donated by sponsor American Apparel, will be worn by arts advocates celebrating the contributions of arts and culture during the Los Angeles City Council meeting on April 17.
