Mission Statement
 


The Cedar City Arts Council is an organization that supports local artists in the folk, literary, visual, and performing arts in Cedar City and the surrounding area. By speaking with a collective voice, we seek to have a greater impact on the development of the arts in our community than we would otherwise have.  
 

Vision Statement
 
 
  • development of Cedar City as a principal center for the arts in southern Utah
  • synergistic enhancement of the community's vitality and economic development through the promotion of the arts and through collaboration with the artistic community
  • artistic education, entertainment, and enrichment for residents and visitors alike
  • the honoring and encouragement of the creative spirit, especially through the ongoing recognition and celebration of the city's cultural heritage
  • communication between artists and the community

Ling Yu, Leah Brown and Nina Hansen with other musicians at the Children's Jubilee.The Cedar City Arts Festival which takes place every year in conjunction with the Utah Shakespearean Festival (www.bard.org), features local and regional artists in all types of visual art --painting, sculpture, photography, jewelry-making, and others. Musical performances and food booths round out the festivities. Application forms are available at the Fall Arts page.

CCAC also stages three social events per year. These are opportunities for artists to meet one another, enjoy food and drink, hear music and poetry, view paintings and multi-media works, and learn more about the arts council's activities. The events are a fun and casual way to attract new people and to celebrate local artists.
