About Us

The Sacramento Metropolitan Arts Commission was established in 1977 by a City Ordinance and a County Ordinance. The Sacramento Metropolitan Arts Commission (Arts Commission) is a public agency devoted to supporting, promoting and advancing the arts in the region. Funded by the Sacramento City and County, the Arts Commission provides funding to local artists and arts groups; promotes the arts through marketing, outreach and education initiatives; provides resources to support and increase regional arts education activities; and serves as a community partner and resource. Download logos to use in your collateral materials.
