The El Dorado Arts Council advances cultural, educational and economic development by advocating and creating the highest quality art opportunities for residents and visitors. This mission is pursued in three ways: through arts incubation, arts education and arts presentation.
In order to acheive its mission, the arts council needs partners who also believe that the arts are integral to a vibrant community. These partners are often businesses and nonprofits that are already involved in the arts in some form, for example, a local theater group with an entrepreneurial idea. Sometimes a partner is more interested in the commerce stimulated by arts events and activities, for example, a chamber of commerce interested in monthly art walks will find this activity is a great way to draw shoppers downtown.
