Mid-West Art Council

"Art and culture are important to the development and vitality of a community.  In a grassroots fashion, the Council promotes the development of art and culture for citizens of all ages within the Midwest Recreation District.  To this end, the Council provides a forum for art exhibitions, performances, dance, music, as well as other activities which encourage individual self-expression."

 

The Mid-West Arts Council meets every 4th Tuesday of the month.  Everyone is welcome to attend and new members are always welcome.

The exhibition in the gallery and the collection in the vault change every month so please come in and have a look!

 

The Mid-West Arts Council includes all residents within the rural Municipalities of Hamiota, Woodworth, Miniota, Blanshard and the Town of Hamiota.  The Board of Directors includes representation from each of these areas.  The Council offers programming in each of these districts.
