Organizer and voter guide
About Laguna Beach Arts Alliance
The Laguna Beach Arts Alliance was created in 2002 through a partnership of Laguna Beach-based organizations. It identifies itself as a 501(c)(3), EIN 04-3623979, and states that its mission is to advocate for the arts, promote collaboration and ensure the arts are included in City planning.
Why attend or review it?
An arts-focused forum can help voters compare how City Council candidates would approach arts policy, cultural organizations and the place of the arts in long-range City decisions.
What subjects are expected?
- Arts advocacy and City planning
- Laguna Beach artists and arts organizations
- Cultural priorities and collaboration
- Detailed forum questions not yet published by the organizer
Can residents submit questions?
The Alliance’s About page provides a contact link and message form. So Laguna has not verified a separate public question-submission process for the September 26 forum.

The Alliance identifies itself as a 501(c)(3) open to Laguna Beach nonprofit arts organizations. So Laguna does not infer a candidate endorsement from forum sponsorship.
