Upcoming Artist Opportunities
If you have an opportunity for community artists, like a contest or club drive, please let us know so we can add it to the calendar.
If any accessibility requirements need to be addressed, please reach out to the Prairie Arts Council one week before the event so accommodations can be met, including accommodations for the blind, deaf, and mobility impaired.
