LACMA Receives $75,000 for Film Program

The Hollywood Foreign Press Assn has announced at a special luncheon that it is donating $75,000 to the The Los Angeles County Museum of Art to support it’s film program.

LACMA had announced that it would be ending its weekend screening series for budgetary reasons. But the museum reversed its decision following a public outcry and pressure from prominent filmmakers including Martin Scorsese.

The LACMA film program specializes in retrospectives of Hollywood and international directors and stars.
