We work with community businesses, local schools, other arts organizations, and individual artists to provide a variety of quality arts experiences for Cook and the surrounding area residents.

Here’s a sample of our past community enrichment programs:

NWFA supports art education in the schools by giving a grant to the art teacher for supplies
-
NWFA sponsored several classical music concerts featuring a cellist, pianist and harpist

And much, much more.
