Collaborate
Collaboration is essential to enriching our community through the arts. Springfield Regional Arts Council creates opportunities for creators, cultural organizations, schools and businesses to connect and grow together. See how we foster collaboration today.
Arts Collaboration Efforts
Whether we are adding beautiful works of art to local businesses or bringing local artists together for our annual art market, we know our efforts go further when we work together. Please review some of our current collaborative efforts and programs below.
Artsfest
With more than 100 artists, local vendors and live performers in attendance, Artsfest is a fantastic representation of how art can impact the Springfield community.
Arts & Culture Grants
Funding support is critical to our local arts and culture initiatives. We’re proud to work with several local foundations to provide financial aid, partnership opportunities and program assistance to nonprofit arts and cultural organizations within the SRAC. Learn more about grant opportunities.
Calls for Artists
SRAC strives to provide ample opportunities for member artists to display their work at our regular exhibitions at The Creamery Arts Center and Springfield-Branson National Airport Sky Gallery.
Corporate Art Program
SRAC’s corporate art program connects artists with corporate sponsors to bring color and creativity to Springfield’s businesses.
First Friday Art Walk
The First Friday Art Walk turns participating businesses in downtown Springfield into art galleries on the first Friday of each month, allowing the community to see local art and learn more about the businesses in their backyard.
$100 & Under Art Market
Our annual $100 & Under Art Market is a fantastic way for artists to sell their works directly to members of the Springfield community. Planned around the holidays, this market is set up as a way for creators to offer alternative gifts to conscious consumers who want to support them.
