Mid-America Arts Alliance
In 1972, civic leaders from four Midwestern states gathered in the belief that the arts and humanities would flourish on the Great Plains if their states worked together to increase opportunity, education, and rural development. Out of that meeting came Mid-America Arts Alliance, the first regional arts organization in the United States. Today our partner states are Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Texas. Mid-America Arts Alliance strengthens and supports artists, cultural organizations, and communities throughout the region and beyond. Our vision is More Art for More People.
