Benton County Arts
promoting creative connection in Benton County, MO
Benton County Arts exists to encourage and promote the arts and artists in Benton County, Missouri, in partnership with county tourism, local businesses, and other foundations.
Benton County Arts began in Feb. 2019 as a Facebook group of local creatives sharing their work, networking, and encouraging one another in their endeavors as makers.
We represent every genre from fine art to fiber art, arts education, photography, performance arts, restoration and repurposing, and so much more.
Our goal is to create a non-profit organization that will promote the arts in our area through partnership with county tourism, education, and local businesses.
We look forward to the community's support in making this goal a reality. The arts are important, and we have a treasure trove of talent to develop and share!
