Brookings / South Dakota / United States
For more than 35 years, the Brookings Arts Council (BAC) has pursued its mission of "encouraging community connections through the arts by providing a supportive environment for awareness, appreciation and participation." The BAC strives not only to entertain and educate the public, but also to increase opportunities for artists to gain recognition. Annual Juried Art and Photography exhibitions bring together the work of many regional artists, from the experienced and respected to the new and promising. The BAC also provides a platform for the communitys youngest artists by partnering with area schools to sponsor exhibitions of work by students from kindergarten through high school.
