Announcement Description

Founded in 1998 with a mission to catalyze a vibrant arts sector, CLA initially focused on reviving and preserving traditional performing arts on the verge of disappearing. During that period, CLA supported master artists in passing their knowledge to over 300 students in various art forms across Cambodia.

By the 2010s, CLA shifted toward nurturing a new generation of young artists by offering scholarships, fellowships, fair-paying jobs through regular performance platform, professional development programs, and a five-year pilot arts education program in select public schools.

Since 2017, in response to limited resources for artists and cultural workers, CLA has provided small grants, creative skills workshops, and support for new works. Today, CLA supports artists and organizations across all art forms, with an emphasis on strengthening and developing the entire arts sector.
