About

Our Mission

Championing the arts,
connecting people,
changing lives.

The Lincoln Arts Council mines the power of the arts to bring people together in Nebraska’s capital city.

 

Diverse and universal, the arts serve as a connector — and we make sure they are accessible to all.

Our Beliefs

The Arts are a
Human Right

We strive to foster positive and inclusive arts opportunities to all through school and community partnerships, teaching and advocacy.

The Arts Belong
to All

The elderly, new Americans, people with special needs, the encarcerated — everyone can find connection, resilience and inclusion through the arts.

The Arts are Vital
to Society

The arts allow us to respect diverse views. They act as a mirror, reflecting our values, challenges and aspirations, sparking dialogue and change.
