HOLA North: With the relocation of our Visual Arts Department, HOLA North has been renovated to expand the capacity of our SmartStart elementary education program and also to house HOLA’s newest program, Youth Orchestra Los Angeles (YOLA). We are very excited to be partnering with the LA Philharmonic Association to serve as the second site of the youth orchestra outreach program, which successfully launched last September. In the program’s first year, HOLA engaged 100 elementary students in intensive music instruction. This fall, the program has expanded to serve 160 elementary school-aged students.

HOLA at Lafayette Park: Thanks to a precedent-setting partnership with the Los Angeles Department of Recreation and Parks, HOLA has expanded its programs to provide exceptional academic, arts, recreation and athletics programs out of the recently renovated Lafayette Park Community Center located across the street from HOLA’s main facility. This new eco-friendly, LEED certified 12,200 square foot facility features brand new multipurpose classroom spaces, a technology lab and a state of the art gymnasium. This rebuilt and expanded center opened for programming in March, 2011, providing Heart of Los Angeles with the opportunity to increase the number of neighborhood youth served by over 60%.

The building was designed by Stephen Kanner at Kanner Architects. Stephen was the founder and chairman of the Architecture + Design Museum in Los Angeles, where he was a key organizer and participant in numerous and significant exhibits. The Lafayette Park Building is the first City of Recreation and Parks project to be LEED certified.
