The Central Arts mission is to create a space where art lives and grows, providing opportunities to the community through art related events.
Our four pillars are:
1. Artist Development: Through prolific artist exhibition, and opportunities for artist visibility we strengthen, and nurture artist careers. This is our first pillar, because we believe that by encouraging artists careers, we simultaneously create strong community leaders.
2. Affordable Education to the Community: Our artist program costs are kept to the very minimum that we can provide them at monetarily. There are always scholarship , and financial aid available to anyone looking to participate in our programming.
3. Community Outreach: Central Arts brings art to the community where it identifies a need, or it asked to by the community itself. This is includes not only bringing artistic activity into the community, but also beautification efforts, and public art.
4. Economic Development: Not only a belief, but conscious effort put into the activity of the first three pillars combined to strengthen the economy of the community/communities that we seeks to serve.
Currently seeking general funding to support staff and programming focused on after school and summer youth outreach programs.
"To create a space where art lives and provides for the community through art related events, educational lessons, and outreach programs."
The past year has taught us what must change to continue meeting the demands of future challenges. Central Arts officially moved to a new location in Bedford to help address the demand for increased space to provide services that meet the needs of the community. Our greatest needs to help us be successful in our new home are cash donations and volunteers!
Central arts Hurst is going strong, but we do need to upgrade some of the facilities as there are a lot of things that just simply need replacing and upgrading.
Richardson Arts Network is our new program at Network of Community Ministries which is our new home away from Tarrant County. We always need volunteers and supplies over there. We Love them!
We love you just the way you are.
