With support from the California Arts Council, Tehama County Arts Council will continue to promote and support the visual and performing arts, as well as cultural activities within all communities in the county. We will provide opportunities for artists of all ages and backgrounds, culture bearers and cultural groups to participate in our gallery, art classes, annual Art Walk, Missoula Children’s Theatre, student art contest, community art grants, Poetry Out Loud, Cowboy Poetry and other collaborative artistic endeavors. These endeavors may include exhibitions, performances, workshops, cultural events and a wide range of other creative activities.
The Tehama County Arts Council (TCAC) was established in 1982 by the Tehama County Board of Supervisors to promote visual and performing arts as well as other cultural endeavors in Tehama County. Since incorporating as a 501(c) (3) nonprofit public benefit corporation in September 1985, the TCAC has coordinated, sponsored, funded, produced, and participated in hundreds of local arts events. The TCAC functions as an umbrella organization, encouraging and supporting the visual arts, dance, theater, music, design, and more. In recent years the impact of the TCAC on the community has been greatly enhanced by an art gallery and increasing activity in our community art studio. We bring art to our citizens and honor local artists with support through inclusion in community activities we sponsor and grant support.
