Our mission is to enrich lives and provide artistic opportunities by inviting all people to share in artistic creation, expression, and education. Sierra County Arts Council’s purpose is to promote, support, and advocate culture and the arts for both residents and visitors of Sierra County through regional collaboration and as the designated local arts agency of the California Arts Council’s State Local Partnership Program.

Our programs and services reflect the needs and inspiration of the isolated frontier communities we serve. We are dedicated to bringing arts education and programming to our rural schools and to providing access to artistic services and programs to everyone in Sierra County. We also manage the only gallery and theater in Sierra County to provide a broad spectrum of programming and activities. Our organization is deeply connected to every aspect of Sierra County life including our local government, our schools, and our business communities.
