Celebration of the Arts…

MCAC’s 41st Annual Arts Week will take place July 14th through 21st. The main purpose of Arts Week is to provide arts related activities including arts programs at no or low cost - making the arts accessible for children, adults, and families.

The Outreach Committee is busy planning the Celebration of the Arts event on Thursday, July 18 and would like to include all arts organizations, students from art programs and studios, and performers and artists from around the county to join us.

Please send us an email at MedinaCoArtsCouncil@gmail.com if you would like to participate in the Celebration of the Arts or have an arts related activity/program you would like to be added to the Arts Week lineup.

Want to help out with events/activities planning, preparation, and execution? We are always looking for volunteers.

Lastly, we are seeking Arts Week event sponsors. MCAC cannot do this without the support of the community - please donate today.
