The City of Smyrna sponsored the Smyrna Vision strategic planning initiative. Its implementation plans were published in November 2014. They included a key recommendation that opportunities for experiencing arts and culture must be elevated and prioritized.
Dedicated volunteers assembled beginning In March 2015 and committed to create what has become the Smyrna Arts & Cultural Council, also known by the acronym SACC. Officers and a Board of Directors were elected on August 12, 2015. The organization was incorporated as a nonprofit shortly afterwards. Since then we have been executing our plan to prepare the organization for long-term success. Please follow our progress by connecting with our social media channels. Attend our public education seminars when scheduled. Volunteer to help us with our many efforts. Enjoy the upcoming events in the community that we support. Thank you for enabling us to succeed. _______________________________________________
Bylaws that define rules of expected behavior for Officers, Directors and Volunteers and how the council is managed were adopted on July 8, 2015. The bylaws were updated on November 17, 2015 to add additional content to support our 501(c)(3) application.

Our mission is to cultivate and promote the arts and cultural activities for the enjoyment and enrichment of our diverse community. All of our activities and efforts align with it.

Our vision is through our efforts Smyrna will become a Metropolitan Atlanta destination for arts and culture and an even
more livable and desirable community. _______________________________________________
Our strategic goals enable us to make decisions that align our activities so we achieve our mission and realize our vision.
They are: 1) Expand and diversify community-based arts and cultural events. 2) Foster arts and cultural educational programming. 3) Increase opportunities for the local arts community to exhibit, perform, and engage. 4) Collaborate with local community organizations, businesses and government entities to advance arts and culture. 5) Build and sustain the long-term capacity and financial viability of the Smyrna Arts & Cultural Council. |
