Arts Council

The Arts Council of Alachua County (ACAC) supports local artists and arts agencies by preparing and re-granting state and federal grant applications. It advocates on arts-related issues at the state and federal level and works to integrate art into community life.

The Council also promotes and facilitates the inclusion of art into an established process that connects artists, partners, and communities for the purpose of enhancing the vitality of the County. The ACAC is responsible for oversight, administration and promotion of Art Tag proceeds and Local Arts Agency dedicated funding. It develops an inclusive strategic plan for County-wide arts and cultural assets that are reviewed and updated annually and reports annually, or as necessary, to the Alachua County Board of County Commissioners on the goals and accomplishments of the ACAC.
