🎪 Art reminds us that joy is a form of creativity.

Arts council was a proud supporter of this weekends Clown Jam. Clown Jam celebrated the playful, unexpected, and wonderfully imaginative side of the arts. Through performance, laughter, storytelling, and community, artists transformed a simple gathering into an experience that inspired connection and curiosity.

Thank you to everyone who shared their talents and helped create a space where creativity could run wild.
