  • Mesmerized is dedicated to creating inclusive spaces and programming that foster exploration, exchange, and creative education—amplifying underrepresented voices and supporting emerging artists across fields and mediums, including those in our local community and beyond.

  • Mesmerized envisions a vibrant cultural ecosystem rooted in equity, imagination, and community care. Through arts education, storytelling workshops, pop-ups, and collaborative programming, we nurture creative confidence, foster lasting partnerships, and amplify underrepresented voices. Mesmerized will also work with students in college application writing workshops and one-on-ones. While our reach extends beyond any one place, we remain committed to supporting displaced creatives in Altadena as the community rebuilds.

  • We are inviting you to get involved with Mesmerized! Collaborate, volunteer, share your story, or help spread the word.
