ARTS is known for its strong presence and contribution to youth education and experiences. The annual Holiday Show celebrates the makers, the artists, the hobbyists of the region. Creativity is defined as something that generates a new idea, insight, or solution through imagination rather than through logic or reason. Creative thinking often takes a different approach to problemsolving, and when that kind of approach is taken in a business atmosphere or a community, the outcome can be both rewarding and pleasantly surprising. These exhibiting artists offer paintings, sculpture, photography, fiber art, sculptural planters and more. In these exhibits, unique expressions stand side by side celebrating the joy of creation. ARTS continues to create greater communities through the arts. Be a part of all the good things that are happening.
