Mission Statement

Let There Be Arts strives to develop and support programs that introduce and encourage the artistic talents, appreciation and physical expression of our students and community.

The Vision

Let There Be Arts is a grassroots organization in Lincoln County, Oregon, dedicated to promoting arts education in the schools and community. It began in the year 2000 when local business, civic and community leaders joined concerned parents, teachers and school administrators to address the drastic cuts made to arts, music and drama programs in their schools. A successful fundraiser was launched and Let There Be Arts was born. We believe that all disciplines benefit from the critical and creative thinking that the arts provide. Let There Be Arts serves to expand and enrich the lives of students in the classroom and beyond.
