Nestled in the historic West Adams neighborhood of Los Angeles, near USC, a century-old national historic landmark and its majestic dome are the new West Coast headquarters of the Art of Living Foundation and beacons for a Violence-Free, Stress-Free America. Art of Living founder Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, recently named the 5th most powerful person in India by Forbes magazine, will inaugurate the magnificent new teaching and administrative center on April 14. Prior to the inauguration, by invite only, the Foundation will host a Gala Reception to begin at 5 p.m. An auspicious evening with the esteemed social, political and business leaders of our country, including an intimate meet-and-greet with the honorable Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, the reception will be a gathering of many great minds. We encourage you to join us for this once-in-a-lifetime event.

In any historic building, the magic lies in its antiquity. The Foundation plans to restore the original charm and pristine condition of this magnificent monument, and simultaneously transform it into a growing center for the betterment of the Los Angeles community. Please join us by aiding in the restoration of this incredible landmark.

Our majestic new center is a national landmark and will be a legacy for generations to come, but we need substantial financial support to bring it back to its splendor. You can contribute by donating here. Any amount will support us in this renovation. Thank you.
