The Ebell of Los Angeles is an educational and philanthropic organization founded by women in 1894. The mission is to participate in and encourage the educational, cultural and social growth of the diverse Los Angeles community. The Ebell administers a college scholarship program for women and men and a program assisting women in need. The Ebell also maintains and preserves its art collections and its historic Clubhouse and Wilshire Ebell Theatre.
Built in 1927 by The Ebell Women’s Club, this architectural masterpiece by renowned Architect Sumner Hunt has been designated an Official American Treasure by the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the White House Millennium Council as well as state and local designations as a historic landmark. The Ebell of Los Angeles is not only a elegant setting for a wedding and reception: the 1,200-seat Wilshire Ebell Theatre has been a theatrical and cultural centerpiece to the Los Angeles community as well. Judy Garland was discovered performing in a talent show on the Wilshire Ebell Stage. Amelia Earhart made her last public appearance at The Ebell before her ill-fated flight around the world. 
Everything about The Ebell is remarkable: the gorgeous clubhouse and beautiful theatre, its history of service and social standing, and all the talented and dedicated women who shaped her through the years. The Ebell is truly unique and particularly stellar.
