We depend on your active support!

Villa Aurora is a non-profit organization funded by the German foreign office (AA) and the Federal Commissioner for Culture and Media (BKM).
For special projects such as our long standing goal of restoring the Villa's unique built-in theater organ we depend solely on your generous support. This major project cannot be financed with public monies.

The centerpiece of our work is the artists in residence program. We attach great importance to the fact that our artists' program doesn't end when our grant recipients leave Los Angeles. Villa Aurora organizes events as part of its follow-up program and publishes documentation and special edition publications. This is a way of introducing a broader audience in Germany to the work created or inspired during our artists' tenure in Los Angeles.

Among the Villa Aurora events is a "May 10" commemoration to the Nazi book burning riots of 1933. We also organize numerous transatlantic events to foster the work between American and German artists, cultural partners and intellectuals.
