The Davie County Arts Council is entering a new season of renewal. Committed to its mission of enriching our community through the arts while reimagining how creativity is experienced, shared, and celebrated across Davie County.
For more than 50 years, the Arts Council has been a cultural cornerstone, supporting artists, engaging audiences, and keeping the arts accessible to all. Today, we build on that legacy with renewed energy, expanded programming, and a forward-looking vision. Through live performances, exhibitions, educational opportunities, and community partnerships, we are strengthening connections and shaping a vibrant future for the arts in Davie County.
To Make the Arts Accessible and Impactful to our Lives.
We believe there are seven different, yet related, high-level categories/purposes of the Arts:
Investing in local artists & organizations
Supporting economic development through the Arts
Creating engaging public events & festivals
Integrating Arts into education
Expanding Arts access & equity
Leveraging technology & digital Arts
Advocating for Arts-Friendly policies
We are focused on the first four categories/purposes which we believe offer the greatest immediate opportunities for growth in programming and educational interactive Arts offerings.
