This year marks the Arts Council's 26th year of serving the arts in Sonoma County. From humble beginnings with a mission to serve to visual arts of the county, to today with a mandate to serve and assist all of the arts in the county, the Council has striven to keep to its core mission intact and burgeon its influence.

The Arts Council of Sonoma County believes that a vibrant and diverse arts and cultural sector is invaluable to the lives of individual citizens and to the connectivity of our community as a whole.

 

The Arts Council of Sonoma County (ACSC) works to enhance the quality of life and economic development of our community by providing leadership and serving as a collaborative catalyst in the arts.  Specifically, we aim to strengthen the arts, culture and arts education through advocacy, promotion, services and training.

 

Our goals

 

1.  We promote the arts as a cohesive sector in Sonoma County and beyond

2.  We provide more opportunities for participation in arts experience

3.  We support smaller arts groups and individual arts

4.  We leverage every contributed and earned dollar to support building

     collaborative programs that support and promote the arts in our community as

     a sector, such as www.sonomaarts.com, ARTrails Open Studios, ArtsSonoma

     Festival, and Sonoma County Artist Awards.

 

 

Our vision of becoming a center of arts and culture in the North Bay can be supported and the ACSC has taken a lead role in facilitating this evolution.  Working with the Cities, businesses, developers, arts organizations, donors and other major partners, we can begin a sustainable process to collaborate on impacting the county plan to include the arts in a transformative way, establishing a shared community vision that frames its goals for wide acceptance and outlining clear steps towards reaching these goals within 15 years. We see our arts advocacy and collaborative work and its process not only supporting the arts, but using the arts as a community-building tool.
