Our Mission
Epic Arts is a grassroots non-profit organization that promotes collaboration and community development through the arts. Since 1997, we have been working to build community partnerships, mobilize local artists, produce cultural events, and develop resources and facilities that ensure accessibility for artists, performers and audiences.
Our Goals
* provide a forum for the public to connect, engage and explore the arts
* promote leadership in a variety of creative forms including crafts, music, movement, visual performance, and production arts, as well as the technical skills associated with creating, managing, and promoting these arts
* foster personal development and establish cooperative relationships
* engage the widest possible audience by including different ages, backgrounds, and those with limited access to art and creative experience
* promote greater integration of creativity in education, communication, work and play
Foundation Works
The Arts have a unique capacity to establish a common ground among people, enhance communication and understanding, and form the bases of meaningful personal and social development. Epic Arts Foundation is committed to promoting projects and activities that demonstrate these ideals.
Community Arts Alliance
Our growing list of participants includes individual artists, performers, educators, students, community members, and organizations of all types that share an appreciation for creative involvement, and mutual support.
