The Arts Commission promotes the growth, development, and preservation
of the arts within the state. The Commission strives to foster
artistic merit and ensure arts accessibility to all citizens of
the state.
Goals are to promote throughout the state: artistic development,
growth, and preservation; artistic expressions of the many cultures
which contribute to Washington's diversity; the arts as basic
to the education of all citizens; and access, equity, and local
empowerment in all its activities.
Objectives are to: provide financial support of public arts events;
increase public participation in arts events; provide technical
assistance to non-profit arts organizations and artists; serve
traditional artists and underserved communities; provide arts
events for the state's public elementary and secondary student
population; and acquire works of art for location at or tour of
buildings funded by the state's capital budget.
