From children exploring visual, literary and performing arts at our cultural centers, to the beautification of our neighborhoods through our public art program, to our grant-sponsored programs funding performances for hundreds of thousands to enjoy, the Arts Commission fosters life-changing experiences in one of the most beautiful cities in the world.

One of the best ways to find out more about what we are up to is to attend one of our commission meetings. Not only will you learn about projects currently under way, you'll also have the opportunity to weigh in during public comment. The Commissioners that oversee this agency, vote on important policies that affect our local arts ecology. Our public meetings are the forum to have your voice heard on issues that matter to you most.
Are you looking for more opportunities for your children to participate in the arts? We've got you covered. In the Arts Education section of this website, you'll find a comprehensive directory of arts education providers in every imaginable discipline.
