Arts Council of Placer County
MISSION:
A catalyst for the Arts and Humanities. Since 1983, the Arts Council of Placer County has been building community throughout Placer County. We believe that art should be a part of everyday living and that, when it is, everyone in the community benefits from a higher quality of life.
Arts Council of Placer County promotes and advocates for all arts across Placer County to enrich and help develop the artistic culture of this region of Northern California.
HISTORY/INFORMATION:
As the designated State-Local partner of Placer County and the California Arts Council, our programs and services encourage and support the public to “experience art in all degrees.” ACPC provides artists and art lovers with many different resources for staying connected. Our Art Events Calendar provides a comprehensive list of upcoming events and our Arts Directory includes listings of Placer County Artists, Venues and Organizations.
Our Community Arts Grants, which are awarded each January, are made possible by funding from Placer County, the California Arts Council and local contributions. In 2019, over $80,000 has been allotted for this program and covers a wide variety of Arts in Placer County.
