About Parker Arts Council
The Parker Arts Council (PAC) is an adjunct group with the Town of Parker that is directly involved with developing and promoting cultural events within the town. Our Mission statement is “To provide opportunities for cultural enrichment through participation, education and outreach to the local community”. Our current board of nine volunteer members meets once a month on the first Tuesday evening at 7:00 p.m. at the Colorado Horse Park. Our executive board consists of five members elected every August to serve a twelve month term. The PAC is a 501(c)3 non profit organization partially funded by the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District (SCFD) through a grant submission process. Other funding resources include partnerships with local businesses providing sponsorship and In-Kind resources to enhance current cultural events and assist in developing new cultural activities within the community.
Youth programs have been a high priority for the PAC. Developing new alliances and enhancing our existing relationship with the Douglas County School District has allowed for the development of numerous youth activities. An Internship program for high school students, Teen Film Night, Open Mic Night for Youth and opportunities for students to fulfill community service requirements for graduation working in theatre productions or constructing the “Stable of Terror” for Halloween with Horses are just a few of the youth programs currently available.
