A community united by a love for the arts
The Community Arts Council of Creston exists to celebrate, nurture and promote artistic expression in our corner of British Columbia.
Our mission
To promote, support and celebrate the arts in the Creston Valley by providing opportunities for artists to showcase their work and engaging the community in cultural experiences.
Our vision
A vibrant Creston Valley where arts and culture thrive, enriching lives, inspiring creativity and strengthening our community’s connection to one another.
Built by artists, for the community
The Community Arts Council of Creston was established by a dedicated group of local artists and art enthusiasts who believed in the power of creative expression. What began as informal gatherings has grown into a vital community organization.
Today, we serve as a hub for artistic activity in the region, connecting visual artists, musicians, performers, writers and craftspeople with audiences who appreciate their work. We organize exhibitions, performances, workshops and community events that bring people together through shared artistic experiences.
Our work is made possible by our members, volunteers and supporters who share our belief that art enriches lives and strengthens communities.
