Beyond Baroque Literary Arts Foundation operates as an independent center for literary and cultural production and public engagement in the Los Angeles area. Founded in 1968 and based in the Old Town Hall in Venice, California, it runs a program of readings, free workshops, publishing activities, a bookstore, archiving, and educational programs. The organization prioritizes facilitating interaction among writers, artists, and audiences to strengthen community ties. In 1998 it established Beyond Baroque Books, a publishing imprint focused on emerging, overlooked, out-of-print, and experimental writing and on preserving the history and legacy of Los Angeles' experimental arts and poetry. With a small-to-mid-sized staff, Beyond Baroque operates within the performing arts landscape as a community-focused literary and arts center. In 2025, it marked its 60th anniversary in conjunction with the Los Angeles Olympic Games, reflecting ongoing participation in public cultural programming in the Venice area.
