Welcome
Under the leadership of the Arts Council, the arts have flourished in Howard County. Today, public funding is at an all-time high; local artists have affordable meeting, studio, and performing spaces; and our community enthusiastically supports local artists and arts organizations by attending performances, festivals, exhibitions and special events.
The Arts Council is located at the Howard County Center for the Arts, a 27,000 square foot multi-disciplinary art center in Ellicott City. The Center for the Arts is a barrier-free facility. Both the Arts Council and the Center for the Arts are committed to non-discrimination in the administration of their programs.
The prospectus is now available for Art HoCo 2009, a juried exhibition. This biennial exhibition opens October 30 and runs through December 11, the guest juror is Amanda Burnham of Towson University. Deadline is August 21, at 5pm. Download prospectus here or drop by the Center for the Arts and pick-one up. This is your change to be a part of one of Howard County's most anticipated exhibits!
Registration is now open for HCAC's Visual and Performing Arts Summer Camp '09! Visit our Classes and Camps page for more details.
