Mission
Arts Council of Washington County (ACWC) is a coordinating body that assists various artists, community-based arts organizations and school arts providers in realizing their potential, primarily through technical assistance, cooperative planning, advocacy, and promotion. We want Dixie's artistic population to come together and work together for the benefit of all - now and in the future.
The Council coordinates and promotes leadership and policies that encourage and foster a strong, vibrant and cohesive arts community for the purpose of enriching the lives of Washington County residents and visitors.
