WOMEN IN THE ARTS, a new program of the Santa Monica Bay Woman’s Club, invites artists from the greater Los Angeles area to our historic Clubhouse and theatre to develop and share their work through events, programs and workshops that directly benefit the community through outreach, education, and charitable donation.
Daybreak,

Westside that empowers women recovering from homelessness and mental
illness to rebuild their lives and reconnect with their communities.
Located in the heart of downtown Santa Monica.
