Arts Connect

Arts Connect Arts Connect grew out of a series of community conversations about the need for information, connections and services for artists and arts providers.

Arts Connect is dedicated to creating more arts awareness and appreciation in the community through programs, resources and meaningful engagement, and by supporting all forms of artistic expression. A central cultural clearinghouse, that in many ways would also function as a "chamber of commerce for the arts". Arts Connect's mission is to give support to artists and the arts providers and also eng

ineer an environment where all forms of creativity are encouraged to flourish. This in traditional ways of information sharing, advocacy, education and resources, but also in initiating efforts that will further develop a stronger community appreciation of and participation in the arts. To achieve our objectives we create, promote and engage in partnerships and collaborations with all sectors of the community.
