This year, Free Arts Los Angeles is proud to honor Los Angeles artist Lawrence C. Carroll with the 2015 Free Arts Volunteer Mentor of the Year Award. Upon moving to Los Angeles four years ago, Lawrence immediately connected with the mission of Free Arts, and has since spent a bulk of his time volunteering within the Free Arts organization to better serve the community.

“Having always been a creative child myself and utilizing art to express my feelings, I knew it was a natural relationship to become a volunteer. In the three years I've served as a volunteer, Free Arts has remained a wonderful outlet for me to continue being a creative child, and to connect with young people who are transitioning through life while enduring some extremely hard circumstances. I appreciate Free Arts so much for all the children and adults they support, including me."

Additional honorees include a line up of notables in the local, national and international design industry, including: Art Swagger Los Angeles, Debra Haas of Herman Miller, Patrice Hironimus of Gensler, Angela Lee & Mark Bryant of Interior Architects Kimball Office’s Holly Rau and Mata Construction’s Anne Alexander.
