Why Support the Oakville Arts Council?

The Oakville Arts Council is a not-for-profit charitable organization
that serves a membership of artists and arts organizations, as well as the general public, as the definitive arts information service in Oakville. We exist to enable local artists and arts organizations and to cultivate and enrich the creative life of our Town.  We promote the arts as vital to achieving a healthy, innovative and vibrant community.

 

How do we achieve our goals?

 

  • We are the definitive resource and referral source for arts information in Oakville
  • We mentor artists and arts organizations by sharing information, consulting, and educating our members on topics such as business management, marketing, professional development, peer networking, fundraising, and availability and accessibility of arts space
  • We maintain open communication through a variety of media, including the internet, print media, direct communication, social media, website and the publication of the Arts About Town magazine.
  • We maintain a comprehensive and up to date Arts Calendar and Arts Directory that the public can access to participate in local arts activity
  • We foster, promote and champion Oakville artists and arts organizations in their programming

Charitable organizations depend on support from the community.

  • Over 300 individuals, foundations and corporations support the Oakville Arts Council through Grants and Foundations, Sponsorships, Advertising, Charitable Donations, Membership and our Fundraiser Cogeco Stars Among Us - Oakville's Arts Awards. 
  • The Oakville Arts Council regularly communicates with over 250 members and over 15,000 readers through our Arts About Town magazine
