With support from the California Arts Council, ACNV will: continue to grow our re-granting program; support recognition of Napa County’s student artists through the VAPA Student of the Month; continue growth of our local Creative Directory; oversee Arts in April providing advocacy; implement new 5-year strategic plan, including advanced Equity.
As the official local arts agency in Napa County, it is our role to connect, advocate and lead the arts community countywide. By building a network of advocates, organizing policy initiatives, and empowering the industry through education, information, and resources, we serve to benefit all residents with a more sustainable, accessible and quality local arts scene. Arts Council Napa Valley’s core programs are The Community Grant Fund, supporting artists and small arts organization through twice yearly grants; The Arts Education Alliance, supporting arts student and teachers as well as selecting the arts student of the month and year; and The Napa County Creative Directory, connecting working artists with hirers.
