The Impact of Supporting the Arts

 

Along with our friends and partners, the Medina County Arts Council is committed to:

  • inspiring each generation to experience and participate in the arts through outreach and promotions

  • to enrich the quality of life and celebrate our artistic heritage

  • to make art accessible to all people throughout Medina County

  • to advocate for all forms of artistic expression essential to building vibrant, diverse, and inclusive communities

  • to encourage education, career opportunities, and entrepreneurship in the arts

  • and to continue sustaining and growing the organization

Thanks to friends like you, we’ve been able to advocate, support, and nurture the arts in Medina County for 41 years, but there’s still so much more we can do!

Your gift will help us:

  • Award more scholarships to students in the arts

  • Support more local arts organizations

  • Create new opportunities for community engagement

Supporting the Medina County Arts Council contributes to the vitality of the local arts scene but also enriches community life, fosters creativity, and can enhance educational opportunities through arts integration. When you support the arts, you’re investing in the cultural health and vitality of your community.

Working together, we can create an environment where art students, professional artists, and arts organizations can thrive!
