An exciting change is happening at the Arts Council. For nearly 50 years, we've provided support to non-profit organizations in our community. And we recognize that the arts community is bigger than just non-profit organizations. That's why we're rolling out our new member services program.
Now, anyone can become a member of the Arts Council!
- Individual membership is available to artists, educators and friends of the arts, with a discount rate for college students.
- Group membership is available to businesses, schools and non-profits.
We're very excited to open our membership to all the groups and individuals who play a vital role in the arts every day. We thank you for all that you do, and hope you'll join us in support of our common goal: a community where each person has access to the arts.
