Welcome to Our Sponsor Page

Major Business/Community Sponsor With an estimated one million people of Middle Eastern or Mediterranean heritage in southern California alone, and with many thousands of visits each month to our web site, business/community sponsors receive the benefit of supporting high-quality cultural programs that fulfill our unique and urgent mission: to promote dialogue among the cultures of the Middle East through the literary, performing and visual arts, and to bring Americans a more mutli-faceted understanding of the Middle East.

::With all the talk in the media about the troubled region, Levantine Cultural Center programs offer audience members a more informed and positive vision of Arab, Persian and other Mideast cultures.::

Levantine Cultural Center produces or cosponsors artistic programs that encourage cross-cultural and multidisciplinary collaborations, and that give voice to issues and experiences of under-represented Middle Eastern communities in order to bring informative and alternative information on these communities to the American public and media.
