COMPOUND (Long Beach, CA)

Compound is a new cultural and creative complex fostering the intersection of contemporary art, wellness, and community. Slated to open in fall 2020, Compound is in the heart of the Zaferia district of Long Beach, CA.

Compound’s approach is holistic and includes multiple entry points for engagement. Public programming ranges from contemporary art exhibitions and immersive experiences, classes and workshops in the healing arts, performances, dining, and spaces to wander and reflect—all in an effort to promote connection, belonging, curiosity and growth.

Rich assisted in the initial stages of the project mainly through creating a business model, developing proforma budgets, advising on the construction of the complex, executive search and the initial setup of technology infrastructure.
