ATHLETES FOR LIFE™, WHO RETURNS

LA ART SHOW 2025.

Celebrating its 35th anniversary, the foundation continues its mission of youth empowerment through mentorship. For the 2025 LA Art Show, Athletes for Life™ will continue its Art 'n' the Schools Art Contest and Field Trip initiative, launched successfully in the previous year. This program aims to reintegrate art and craft into the school system.

Athletes for Life™ will conduct private tours of the LA Art Show for groups of thirty students. These hour-long tours will expose students to a wide array of world-class art and provide opportunities to meet and learn from accomplished artists.
