Welcome to the Adams County Arts Council's Web Site!
OUR
NEW WEBSITE IS COMING IN June. PLEASE VISIT AGAIN
SOON AND SEE IT!
Incorporated in 1993, the Adams County Arts Council has evolved from a small group of optimistic organizers into a 500-member
nonprofit agency supporting artistic efforts throughout the county’s schools and communities.
The Council's mission is to cultivate an arts-rich
community. Its primary goals are to provide
arts opportunities for students of all ages and to
support the work of local arts presenters and
artists. To help support our work, you may
donate to our annual fund.
