Since 2012, donors and supporters of The Arts Partnership have made a substantial commitment to supporting local art by investing nearly $224,000 in artists making a difference in the community.
In Fall/Winter 2025-26, we are celebrating this work with a two-part exhibit celebrating our visual arts, writer grantees — and all of the positive results from community-driven support for the arts.Â
“Commitment: 14 Years of Artistic Vision,” a local artist grantee retrospective 2012-2025 is now open at West Acres and captures the spirit of the local arts community through the paintings, photography, ceramics and writing of more than 40 local artists. Part I of the exhibit can be found in a storefront in the JC Penney’s wing (across from Eddie Bauer and next to Ragstock) and Part II in the glass display case in the Bison Court in front of Von Maur.
While the exhibition runs through January 11, 2026, we hope you can check it out soon and honor all the amazing local artists who make our community a vibrant place to live and work.
