Today’s Featured Sponsor – Beaverton Arts Commission

BAC-2

Beaverton Arts Program

The significance of art within the community was realized by a grassroots effort of local citizens, resulting in the establishment of the Beaverton Arts Commission by city ordinance in March of 1983. In order to sustain high quality art within the community, the Arts Program provides culturally enriching activities, programs and services throughout the year.

Beaverton Arts Commission

The mission of the Beaverton Arts Commission (BAC) is to enhance, unite, and celebrate our diverse community through art. The BAC does this by advocating for the arts; supporting city arts events and programs; spreading the mission of the BAC at outside events and gatherings; advising staff and City Council on arts-related issues; and, volunteering their time to serve on the BAC board and other project sub-committees.
