A Message from MAC: Support the Arts!
Mono Arts Council (MAC) is kicking off our first ever major fundraising campaign on #GivingTuesday. Now through June 30th, 2021, we are raising $250,000 to establish key programs, support some of our most beloved programs, and build a strong foundation for the future of the arts in Mono County. Our goal is to chart a new funding course to augment the grants we receive and the revenue from our annual events.

We need your help to ensure everyone has access to the arts in Mono County.

This year, like many other organizations, we have been hit particularly hard. We were proud to cancel our long-standing summer fundraising events for the health and safety of our community. However, those critical measures have taken a financial toll.

The need for the arts in our community continues to grow. Now more than ever, we need the arts. We need the arts to express ourselves, to share our experiences, to bring us together no matter the physical distance between us.

Each year, we provide K-12 arts education programs for 1600 students, arts events for 12,000 adults, and platforms for established and emerging artists. Beyond events, we advocate tirelessly for the arts and work to build collaborations to ensure we have a thriving arts community.
