President of the California Institute of the Arts, Ravi Rajan put it succinctly when he said, art is a fundamental human need. It is the vehicle in which students can express, feel, relate, learn and process all of which contribute to the well-being and success of an individual. Unfortunately, there are a lot of barriers to students having access to arts education, especially in California where less than 40% of students are enrolled in any sort of arts class.
As schools provide less opportunity for students to experience the arts in the classroom, this creates a need for students to find the benefits of the arts elsewhere. This resource serves as a guide to available arts education programs in all 78 school districts in Los Angeles County. While it is not a complete or comprehensive list, it provides a number of affordable community programs, non-profit organizations and dance, art, culture, theater and music courses open for students to participate in.

For The Signal
California Institute of the Arts, or CalArts, is leasing space in Downtown Newhall to put its students’ artwork on display, officials with the Valencia arts college announced recently.
The agreement at Newhall Crossings, which is set to be on display until the end of May, covers a retail space with three floors, according to Marylou Ferry, CalArts executive director of communications.
“Now our neighbors and friends have the opportunity to see and explore this work with a unique partnership between the city and CalArts and Newhall Crossings,” said Ravi Rajan, president of CalArts.
CalArts officials first explored the idea as a way to expand opportunities for their students in order for them to share their artwork with the community, especially during a time when it was difficult to create such exhibits.

The Strongest Woman of the Mongolian Empire
In Mongolia, wrestling (
also known as Bökh ) is a very popular sport and has a significant cultural and historical significance for all Mongols. The Mongolian national wrestling costume itself has its own unique history and is an interesting piece of garment.
The wrestlers wear a particular type of vest that has long sleeves but no shoulder covering with a completely open front exposing the whole of the chest. The open chest allows each wrestler to confirm that his opponent is a male. At the end of the match, the victor slowly waves his arms in the air like a bird, turning for all to see.
