The Cedar City Arts Council is an organization
that supports local artists in the folk, literary, visual, and performing
arts in Cedar City and the surrounding area. By speaking with a collective
voice, we seek to have a greater impact on the development of the arts
in our community than we would otherwise have.

Sponsored Events
The Cedar City Arts Festival
features local and regional artists in all types of visual art --painting,
sculpture, photography, jewelry-making, and others. Musical performances
and food booths round out the festivities. Application forms are available at the Fall Arts page. In 2010 not only will there be an arts festival at the Utah Shakespearean Festival venue, but the Cedar City Arts Festival will also be partnering with Groovefest to provide artists even more opportunities to display and sell their work.
CCAC also stages three social
events per year. These are opportunities for artists
to meet one another, enjoy food and drink, hear music
and poetry, view paintings and multi-media works, and
learn more about the arts council's activities. The events
are a fun and casual way to attract new people and to
celebrate local artists.
The Literary Group sponsored by the Cedar City Arts Council meets every other month in the Cedar City Library in the Park. While conversation is livelier when all attendees have enjoyed the book at hand, anyone is welcome. Questions and information will be addressed by Mary Anne Anderson at 865-6882.
