OLAAI (One Lawndale Arts and Activism Incubator) is a creative movement rooted in both North and South Lawndale, dedicated to uplifting the voices of local youth through art, culture, and community action. Founded with the belief that creativity can be a powerful tool for change, OLAAI serves as a platform where young artists, organizers, and visionaries come together to express themselves, tell their stories, and reimagine the future of their neighborhoods.Our mission is to bridge the gap between art and activism—empowering the next generation to use paint, music, poetry, and performance as tools to inspire unity, healing, and progress. By creating spaces for artistic growth and civic engagement, OLAAI is helping shape a new narrative for Lawndale—one that celebrates resilience, community pride, and the power of youth-led change.
