==Linden Endowment for the Arts (LEA)==


The Linden Endowment for the Arts (LEA) was established to help create a center of arts activity in Second Life. It is a collaborative venture between Linden Lab and the arts community. Guided by a [https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Linden_Lab_Official:Linden_Endowment_for_the_Arts_Committee dedicated board of renowned Second Life artists], the LEA is committed to providing access to engaging experiences in the arts for the Second Life community. Through its exhibitions, programs, and events, the LEA fosters awareness of artists’ contributions to our virtual world and encourages others to get involved and be inspired.
The LEA was initially formed in early 2010 but put on temporary hiatus that year. The committee reconvened in 2011 and is now planning a variety of events and experiences for the Second Life community to enjoy.
The Linden Endowment for the Arts is proud to announce its first official event in May 2011: the Month of Machinima (MoM). Machinima is one of the art forms supported by the LEA, which is committed to providing access to engaging experiences in the arts for the Second Life community.
