The mission of the Marshall County Arts Commission is to insure the
inclusion of the cultural heritage of the Arts in Marshall County,
aid in providing venue opportunities for Arts presentations by and
for the citizens of Marshall County and assist in securing financial
support for these provisions. The Commission seeks to serve as a
catalyst for the development of an appreciation for the Arts as a
whole and all the disciplines therein.
The primary goal of the Marshall County Arts Commission is to build
an appreciation of the arts throughout the community. The
Commission's structure focuses on membership expansion and
identifying sources of financial support that will result in the
building of public awareness of the Commission itself. Secondly, the
Commission seeks to research and promote the cultural heritage of
the Arts in Marshall County. The Commission expects to successfully
present activities that will appeal to the public and also showcase
the talent of individuals from within the county. In doing so, the
Commission hopes to achieve a balance in all Art disciplines.
Long-term goals include the formation of a Speaker's
Bureau and the development of sound relationships with regional
artists and art groups. The Commission would like to develop
long-term relationships with individuals responsible for venues
within the county and encourage the balance of venues for
activities. The Commission strives to provide support to continued
traditions within Marshall County.
The Commission meets on the fourth Thursday of each month at
the Marshall County Library in Benton, Kentucky, 6:00 p.m.
Anyone interested in the Arts is invited to attend.
