Former NPR CEO Jarl Mohn Makes Major Gift of Contemporary Los Angeles Art to Hammer Museum, LACMA and MOCA


Former NPR and E! chief Jarl Mohn has made a major gift of Los Angeles contemporary art to the city's Hammer Museum, LACMA and MOCA.

In addition to the donation, the Mohns will establish an endowment for annual acquisitions as well as expenses related to the ongoing care and storage of the collection. The co-owned collection establishes “a groundbreaking model for institutional collaboration and commitment to directly supporting the artist communities of Los Angeles. The gift will enable the three institutions to actively and collectively acquire works by L.A. artists on an annual basis, with acquisitions chosen jointly by curatorial teams from all three museums.
