Mission Arts Council

The District of Mission Arts Council is a non-profit organization operated by dedicated volunteers.

Mandate: “To foster the development and appreciation of the arts by providing cultural and educational activities for the community of the District of Mission”.

Their goals are to stimulate, coordinate and assist in the development of cultural and creative activities in the community. In addition to their programs and events, they strive to meet these objectives on a daily basis by acting as a central resource and referral agency, and by advocating for artists and the arts as a whole.  In particular, they act as an umbrella organization to support member groups, as well as visual and performing artists who in turn provide performances, lessons, exhibits and opportunities for aspiring artists and members of the community to participate in their events.
