Hang out on The Office, shop for cool gifts, and enjoy our first movie!
November 2009

Dear Friend of Hollywood Arts,

   Tons to tell! As we close out the year, we are celebrating with a successful gala, a fantastic ebay auction (including a day on the set of The Office and a guitar lesson with Steve Vai), our first student-realized promotional video, and our traditional holiday dinners!

A huge thanks to everyone who made the Dream Awards a success including our honorees VANS and Jesse Carmichael, Brian Baumgartner for hosting, and Maroon 5 for performing in a tremendous special acoustic moment.

Please click here to watch Do Something! our promotional video and see our students in action, and to learn how you can help invest in changing the lives of homeless youth and have fun at the same time!

  • The movie! Students tell their own stories, stories of who they will become...

    Sit back and give five minutes to watch our students in the first ever Hollywood Arts promotional video. Do Something was conceptualized and acted in by our students. Wanting to tell the stories of their futures and not their lives on the streets, our students created this video to show that with opportunities they will change their own lives.

    Hollywood Arts thanks Ron Moon and KC Porter for volunteering their time to produce and sound edit the video. We also want to thank Hollywood Arts students (in order of film appearance) Jason "Shredder" Hernandez, Chiante Morgan and Paul Nicks.


    The Dream Awards was a success!

    Our second annual dinner exceeded our expectations! With a special performance from Maroon 5, we recognized the outstanding progress of two extraordinary Hollywood Arts students: Quadiyr Wilson and Terry Ray along with our exceptional honorees: Company of the Year: VANS and Role Model of the Year: Jesse Carmichael.

    Thank you to all our sponsors including Levitt Pavilions, Insomniac Games, Warner Brothers, VANS, Whole Foods, Veev, O.N.E, Paramount Pictures, DTS, Dylan Yolles, NBC Universal, Diana Buckhantz, Comcast Entertainment Group, and CA Management.

    We hope you can all join us next year!
