With support from the California Arts Council, ARTS BENICIA will work with a consultant to execute a strategic planning process that provides high level direction for the organization and its board for the next 3-5 years. Building on the energy and enthusiasm of a number of new board members, the process will help Arts Benicia to affirm its mission, develop a set of planning priorities, and strengthen the organization’s financial stability.
Since its formation in 1987, Arts Benicia has established a compelling series of ongoing annual exhibitions, classes for adult, teens, and children, events, and public programs that have contributed significantly to the region’s cultural vitality and attract thousands of visitors each year. A community-based non-profit organization, Arts Benicia serves as a hub for the visual arts community in Benicia and the Historic Arsenal District, and it offers resources and benefits for artists, including opportunities to exhibit and promote their work.
