MISSION STATEMENT
The members and board of The Arts Council believe that art is important to the life of a community and nourishes human development. Its purpose is threefold:
- To promote communication, cooperation, and support of the arts in the Twin Counties.
- To serve as a liaison between the arts and businesses, government, and educational institutes.
- To provide educational services for and about the arts.
The Arts Council carries out this mission through classes, lectures, and performances for adults and children. Additionally, a Carmichael Scholarship is presented annually to graduating seniors from each of the local high schools who are pursuing further studies in the visual or performing arts along with a Galax Theatre Guild Legacy Fund Scholarship to a Twin County graduating senior who will be pursuing further studies in theatre.
