The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden has launched the "50 for 50" loan program, a landmark initiative to disperse over 200 artworks from its collection to museums in all 50 U.S. states and Puerto Rico. Major works by artists like Jackson Pollock, Georgia O'Keeffe, and Willem de Kooning will be loaned for up to five years, with a focus on reaching underserved and rural communities.
The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden has launched a major partnership with the Art Bridges Foundation called '50 for 50'. This initiative will send long-term loans of significant American artworks from the Hirshhorn's collection to smaller museums in all 50 U.S. states and Puerto Rico, with loans lasting three to five years.
LACMA has expanded its Local Access initiative by adding three new museum partners: the California State University, Dominguez Hills (CSUDH) University Art Gallery, the Millard Sheets Art Center at the L.A. County Fair, and the Ontario Museum of History & Art. Supported by the Art Bridges Cohort Program, these institutions join four existing partners in creating exhibitions sourced from LACMA’s permanent collection. The program’s latest exhibition, "Act on It! Artists, Community, and the Brockman Gallery in Los Angeles," will open at the Vincent Price Art Museum on September 27. Local Access, launched in 2021, was the first Art Bridges Cohort Program in the Western United States.
