Mission

The Fresno Arts Council (FAC) is a private, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization established in 1979 under the name of the "Alliance for the Arts" by local artists, arts organizations and interested individuals who wished to create a voice for the arts in the Central San Joaquin Valley. Our mission is to "enrich peoples lives through the arts." Our purpose is to foster an arts community that recognizes and honors the contributions of its citizens to the arts; advocate city, county, state and national institutions on issues of concern to valley artists; collaborate with community leaders, businesses, corporations, foundations, and other arts organizations to bring artists and audiences together. The Fresno Arts Council sponsors, promotes and encourages the arts throughout the city and county of Fresno and acts as an umbrella for artists and art organizations from all cultures and disciplines through advocacy, education, programs and services.
