Building community through the arts in St. Louis Park since 1995.
Our Mission
Our mission is to support, promote, and enhance the arts in St. Louis Park to bring people together and build community. We connect people and organizations around the arts, share arts-related information and resources, support local artists, and coordinate community arts programs.
2020 roadmap for advancing arts & Culture
In August of 2020, the St. Louis Park City Council accepted the new Strategic Roadmap for Advancing Arts & Culture, a document that we developed through several years of work alongside City staff and many participating community stakeholders. The process included an extensive community listening period and four collaborative, cross-sector steering committee meetings.
The finished document outlines the context in which arts and culture play an important role to community vitality, and outline key strategic themes and lenses to guide our ongoing collaborative work in the community: Connect People, Ideas, and Communities; Promote Health and Wellbeing; Enliven Public Spaces; Advance Equity & Inclusion; Build Awareness and Recognition; Sustain and Strengthen through Policy and Resources.
