Our Mission

The Newburgh Arts & Cultural Commission is committed to fostering a thriving and vibrant cultural life in Newburgh through the arts. As a volunteer-led extension of City Government, the Commission works to promote the City’s artistic and cultural activities and creative industry for all residents and visitors. The Commission advises the City of Newburgh and its agencies on all matters of arts and culture, develops strategies and recommends priorities to the City, liaises between the City and the arts and cultural community, creates and sponsors public arts projects and cultural events, encourages cultural tourism and the economic impact of the arts, and works to strengthen arts education, accessibility, and participation for all persons.
