ACHF Arts Access
A major goal for this year is to keep the Marshall Area Fine Arts Council viable and sustainable. We want to exist and continue to fulfill the mission of MAFAC. The impact of the SMAC funds will help keep MAFAC functioning. It is vital that MAFAC keep its core volunteers and recruit more community diverse and age individuals willing to volunteer time and contribute to the organization. The easiest way to measure or prove if our goal is met is to assess whether the Marshall Area Fine Arts Council continues its regrowth and outreach to a wider community of age, diversity and creative interests as MAFAC continues to host concerts, work with artists and authors in the Gift Shop, provide arts education opportunities and to stage and host Exhibits.
