Edwardsville Arts Center

The Edwardsville Arts Center (EAC) is a 501(c)3 non-profit community visual arts organization with a four-person staff and a volunteer base. Our Mission is to inspire the lives of youth and the creative spirit of adults through classes, exhibits and cultural events. We seek to foster awareness of the positive impact of art and creative making on a community by providing opportunities that preserve traditional techniques and inspire contemporary ideas; encourage dialogue while cultivating a sense of community; celebrate ideas and diverse cultures; provide visibility to local artists; encourage the collection of art; and provide opportunities for expression and engagement.
