The Syracuse City Arts Council is dedicated to making Syracuse an art community. Since Syracuse is the gateway to Antelope Island, our opportunities to enjoy the beauty of nature and wildlife within and surrounding our community is a wonderful gift. It is the Arts Council's goal to provide learning experiences as well as opportunities to express and display our creative talents by sharing them with each other through not only the fine arts, but the performing arts of music, poetry and theater as well.
