ONTARIO  COUNTY  ARTS  COUNCIL

We support and promote the arts. But we do more than just "support and promote." We provide our member artists opportunities to shine, and to share their talents and work. And we are a membership-based 501(c)3 non-profit organization!

​

• We provide member artists opportunities to share and sell their work in several exhibits a year at the Gallery at the Ontario County Historical Society Museum and elsewhere. (See the current exhibit.)

​​

• We organize Rotating Art Exhibits that extend featured member artists the opportunity to share and sell their work in a number of sponsored locations in the county.

​​

• We facilitate art exhibits & classes in our Art in the Libraries outreach program.

​

• We provide member artists the opportunity to share and sell their work in juried exhibits at the Fort Hill Performing Arts Center, which has been sadly impacted by the pandemic. (See the current exhibit.)

​​

• We annually recognize a talented student majoring in the visual or performing arts at the Finger Lakes Community College with our Ontario County Arts Council-Mariner Family Art Scholarship.

​​

• We help support art and cultural projects undertaken by qualifying government and non-profit organizations with grants and donations.

​​

• We showcase the community’s outstanding vocalists in an annual Musical Evening Fundraiser, another program unfortunately impacted by the pandemic.
