Overview
Stanford Live, a major university presenter reaching 38,000 audience members annually through a diverse program of performing arts events, has undergone a series of changes in the last two years. These include a name change, major artistic and executive leadership shifts, and the opening of the Bing Concert Hall, an 842-seat, state-of-the-art facility on the Stanford campus. With the modest size of the new hall, and many performances selling out, the organization is looking at ways to make programs more accessible to students and the local community. Renewed support would help the organization increase the presentation of international artists, develop its local K-12 education programs, and develop technology as a tool to reach new audiences.

Grants to this Grantee
for support of the Policy Analysis for California Education program
Policy Analysis for California Education (PACE) is a nonpartisan policy and research center housed at Stanford University. It researches and analyzes education policy issues pertaining to California’s K-12 education system, bridging the gap between research and policy. This grant will help PACE produce relevant analysis and research, which can be used to better inform California education policy development and guide state and local decision making.

for support of a neuroimaging study of racial bias and professional investors
SPARQ, a research center at Stanford University, seeks to reduce societal disparities and social divides using behavioral science. This grant will support research to examine racial diversity in the financial services industry. It is expected that this information will be used to develop strategies and practices to reduce biases that contribute to racial disparities.
