Featuring a diverse range of mediums and artists, the Council For The Arts Gallery hosts several exciting curated shows during the year.
The Council For The Arts Gallery is the perfect events space and regularly hosts exhibits, classes and more.
The Council for the Arts is a predominantly volunteer run organization filled with passionate, creative people who strongly believe that art should be accessible to everyone and is an important part of the foundation for a healthy community.
Your Arts Community Would Be Less Colorful Without you.
Since 1987 the The Council for the Arts has relied on the support of committed art enthusiasts like you to help us fulfill our mission to inspire, educate and create artistic opportunities within our community.
Over the last few years the Council, like many organizations, has experienced new challenges. As a result of the global pandemic, we have been negatively impacted in so many ways. Most significantly for the Council, it meant closing our doors for an extended period of time. We have also suffered financially, as contributions from foundations and grants have decreased, been delayed or stopped entirely.
