Ivins City Arts Commission
Life without the collective resources of our museums, libraries, theatres and galleries, or without the personal expression of literature, music and art, would be static and sterile; no creative arguments about the past, no diverse and stimulating present, and no dreams of the future.
Mission
Vision
The mission of the Ivins City Arts Commission is to encourage, foster, and promote arts and cultural organizations, arts-related activities, and artists, and to identify arts-related funding opportunities to enrich the quality of life in Ivins City.
Ivins City integrates recreational venues and programs and access to the arts to assure residents and visitors experience living artfully.
Ivins City has a strong Parks and Recreation Department working towards this Vision. With this Arts Master Plan, Ivins City commits to encouraging and promoting arts and culture, artists, art installations, activities and education to create a welcoming environment and enrich the lives of residents and visitors.
