PARK CITY & SUMMIT COUNTY
As one of the oldest Arts & Culture organizations in Summit County, we serve as the designated Local Arts Agency for Park City, North Summit, and South Summit/Kamas Valley.
Our mission is to serve our Arts & Culture community by driving creative programming, providing valuable resources, and cultivating connections. We envision a community where Arts & Culture is critical, where creatives thrive, and where all people connect through the arts.
what we do
Events & Programs
Art connects us. We produce annual events and programs that promote community building and bring people together though shared creative experiences such as the Latino Arts Festival, Art on the Trails, and the Summit Arts Market. Check them out here.
Public Art
We develop several public art projects each year to support creative placemaking countywide with the goal of enriching our community, cultivating cultural identity, and providing accessible art to inspire new ideas and instill community pride.
Advocacy & Planning
We are the only local nonprofit organization in with a sole mandate to advance art and culture countywide. We advocate for increased investment in Arts & Culture and execute cultural planning efforts to lay roadmaps for the future.
Cultural tourism
Promoting our robust local art sector is at the heart of that we do. We tell stories about local artists, cultural nonprofits, creative businesses, and events to drive visitors and residents to engage in a wide range of cultural activities offered throughout the County.
