JUNE 2008:
Inner-City Arts' innovative animation program, created in 1995, is now The DreamWorks Animation Academy at
Inner-City Arts, in recognition of a $500,000 grant from the DreamWorks Animation Charitable Foundation.
At the presentation ceremony on May 28, DreamWorks Animation SKG CEO Jeffery Katzenberg, Los Angeles Mayor Villaraigosa, Actresses Lisa Kudrow and Kate del Castillo were treated to the screening of a film created by students from El Sereno Elementary School. The 4th grade students attended a 14-week class at Inner-City Arts to create the 7-minute animated piece.
See our PRESSROOM for media clippings and video coverage of the event.
