The Lancaster City Art Collective
The Lancaster City Art Collective is committed to supporting local artists, galleries, collectives, and creative individuals. Our aim is to highlight Lancaster, PA as an arts destination that attracts visitors near and far. In pursuing this mission, we seek to foster creative expression while providing artists with meaningful opportunities to showcase their work, build their careers, and engage with audiences.
We believe that by supporting the arts in Lancaster, we can contribute to the social, cultural, and economic vitality of our region. Through partnerships with other organizations, government agencies, and community leaders, we hope to create a vibrant arts scene that celebrates diversity and promotes innovation.
We operate as a group effort, to keep it moving forward, members are asked to contribute annually by way of a membership fee. We also keep each other informed of our events by providing images, press releases, or other regular updates that we use for promotion across our printed matter, social media accounts and here on our website.
