About ACGL

Established in 1965, the Arts Council of Greater Lansing (ACGL) is a non-profit organization whose mission is to lead, advocate for and advance arts and culture in the capital region. The ACGL serves hundreds of artists and more than 120 arts and cultural agencies, and also works alongside area stakeholders in an effort to best serve and support the cultural vitality of our region. Although we don’t make art, we help to make the arts possible.

• We conduct public relations efforts and provide promotional support in order to increase the awareness of our regional arts and cultural amenities
• We coordinate and present public arts programming that supports our constituents and our region, including the annual Silver Bells in the City event held in downtown Lansing
• We provide networking opportunities and discussion forums for artists and arts and cultural organizations
• We help residents and visitors connect to arts and cultural opportunities available in the region
• We administer three grant programs that enable our region to create and present arts and cultural work and arts educational programs
• We act as arts consultants on issues affecting artists, arts and cultural organizations and area stakeholders
• We advocate locally and statewide on behalf of the arts in the capital region
• We assess data and present reports about the arts and cultural field, and conduct sessions that discuss the economic impact of the arts
• We assist the business community and local government whenever possible in revitalizing urban, suburban and rural areas utilizing the arts
• We support, strengthen and facilitate partnerships that enhance and increase arts and cultural opportunities for our constituents and our community
