ABOUT SRAC

The Springfield Regional Arts Council (SRAC) connects people and the arts. We support some of the most prominent visual, performing, literary, and film/media arts organization within 27 counties, the largest outreach of any in the state of Missouri.

The SRAC has a 21-member board and has a full-time Executive Director, Programs/Exhibition Director, Marketing/Development Director, Office & Facility Manager, a part-time Bookkeeper, and Corporate Art Coordinator. In addition, there are several active volunteers who help with major events and projects. The SRAC has developed a solid internship program with local universities.

The SRAC's operations are funded through memberships, festival/event proceeds, grants, donations, and a portion of the local hotel/motel tax.

CULTURAL PARTNER

The Springfield Daily Citizen is a nonprofit, independent, online news outlet in Springfield, Missouri. Since our launch on February 14, 2022, we’ve highlighted local arts groups; explored issues from Springfield’s teacher exodus to our community’s child care crisis; set you up for the weekend; explored our great outdoors; shared the diverse voices and opinions of our community; honored the lives of those we’ve lost; dived into our local sports scene; and debuted Springfield’s most comprehensive events calendar. We believe good journalism brings issues to light, but great journalism brings communities together.

VISIT THE CREAMERY ARTS CENTER

SRAC offices are located in The Creamery Arts Center, a city-owned building equipped to host workshops, classes, receptions, and board meetings for numerous arts and cultural agencies and individuals. Exhibition space featuring a rotating monthly exhibit is open to the public.
