About Durham Arts Council, Inc.

Durham Arts Council, Inc. is a prominent organisation dedicated to fostering and promoting the arts within the Durham community and beyond. Established with the vision of enriching lives through artistic expression, the council plays a pivotal role in supporting local artists and cultural initiatives.

Our core activities include providing grants and funding opportunities for artists, organising community events, and facilitating educational programmes that engage individuals of all ages in the arts. We believe that art is a vital component of a vibrant community, and we strive to make it accessible to everyone.

Through partnerships with local schools, businesses, and other organisations, we aim to create a collaborative environment where creativity can flourish. Our events range from art exhibitions and performances to workshops and festivals, showcasing the diverse talents of our local artists.

At Durham Arts Council, we are committed to inclusivity and diversity, ensuring that all voices are heard and represented in the arts. We actively seek to engage underrepresented communities and provide them with platforms to share their stories and experiences.

As we look to the future, our vision remains clear: to be a catalyst for artistic innovation and a leader in the cultural landscape of Durham. We invite everyone to join us in celebrating the transformative power of the arts.
