2020 UPDATE The Arts Datathon website has moved. Please visit our new website where you can learn all about the 2020 Arts Datathon, where we will explore the role of data in making public policy: http://www.lacountyarts.org/learning/arts-datathon.
Arts Datathon: Democratize will take place on Wednesday, April 3, 2019. This year, we will focus on democratizing arts data, with four different tracks to choose from:
- Data Science for Arts Education
- Public Art on WikiData
- Border Data
- Visualizing Data Through Craft
Visit the Project Tracks page for more details.
Now in its third year, the Arts Datathon brings together arts administrators, artists, educators, data scientists, students community advocates, researchers, civic technologists and others to explore how data can improve access to the arts.
At the end of the each event, we have a greater understanding of the present and future of arts and culture programming, infrastructure, and policy across the Los Angeles region. We also learn and share about how we can put the data to work.
