Welcome to The Compton Artists Alliance, a non-profit rooted in Compton, CA, and the surrounding hub cities. We're an artists collective fostering creativity and supporting artists entering the arts economy. We connect artists through… collaboration and advocacy. Our art soirées, workshops, events, and galleries focus on community engagement with a mental health focus. We believe in the transformative power of art to heal communities, guided by principles of education, innovation, understanding, and unwavering support. Join us as we extend our reach from Compton's streets to a global platform, uniting and uplifting artists internationally.
We got our start in the city of Compton in 2017. Our first meetings were held at local restaurants and at the homes of a few of our Compton neighbors who believed in us. Our team was built based on a genuine love for the arts and the community of Compton and it’s surrounding cities; which make Compton “The Hub“ City”. We know the true history of Compton and the stories of the Artists that’s have submerged from this great city and we also know what image the world tries to paint. We believed that the Art Community needed to be revived and the local Artists elevated. We have curated a handful of successful Art Galleries, Film and Artists Discussions, Music events, sponsored Artists to travel internationally, encouraged Artists to push themselves to new levels, Collaborated with other foundations in and outside of the city of Compton. We plan to continue growing and merging a space for mental health and the arts to merge to heal the artist and the viewer through the ARTS and support.
We focus on actively contributing, supporting and educating the Artists community in Compton, Ca. That includes but is not limited to their participation in the arts economy, providing opportunities for professional and personal development, while continuously supporting collaborative projects, and continued arts education.

Through a collective of local and abroad artists, envisioned by Myz the Artist we bring to you an interactive/submersible experience into child’s play thru art. We invite you into seeing the world around us as an empty canvas that we get to fill with ideas that come to life. This is the beginning of our journey as artists; shaping our path as we live, making it all possible. We welcome you to find gratitude in your individual journey.
Art as a Lifestyle is intended to remind us that what we do is an art form. The way we live is setting new parameters.
“Art is more than what we do, is how we live. Creating reality without limitations.” -Myz
