About

Founded in 1975 the Yoknapatawpha Arts Council remains committed to a diverse offering of artistic and cultural opportunities.

Story

Each year, YAC creates and delivers an exciting package of projects, programs and good works in the spirit of its mission to the community. This past year the two member staff, the board and volunteers presented 300 days of art programs ranging from students programs, exhibits by emerging artists in the gallery, live theatre productions, concerts, classes, and independent film screenings.

The Arts Council assists over 20 various groups each year. This is possible only through the support of individuals and businesses. The membership drive is one of the key fundraising tools that enable us to present free art camps for children in the summer, concerts in the Grove, live music at The Powerhouse, a rotating schedule of free art exhibits, to acquiring all equipment to present live productions by Theatre Oxford, Leda Swan and others at the Powerhouse Community Arts Center.

I went to the Fiber Festival there & thoroughly enjoyed it. You should go just to find out about everything that they offer the community.

Had a great time at The Powerhouse with the Makers Market. Lots of local artists and crafters who really make Beautiful and Stunning creations.

Wayne is great! I called to ask about the Oxford Art Crawl and he answered all of my questions with such great enthusiasm! We met him and his wife later that night at the art crawl and they are lovely people! The art crawl was so fun! That was our first time riding the double decker bus and we loved it! The bus driver was also so sweet! Just remember to bring some cash to tip the intern who's serving you drinks!

Lots of local and community art events and performances happen here. Generally amateur, but usually worth seeing.
