We are excited to share some fantastic news: the Birch Tree Communities Expressive Arts Program has once again been selected as a recipient of the Arkansas Arts Council’s Community Arts Project Grant for Fiscal Year 2026!

This marks the second consecutive year we’ve received this generous grant, which plays a vital role in supporting our expressive arts program and presenting the 20th Annual Expressions Art Show, coming in April 2026.

The Community Arts Project Grant is designed to support initiatives that bring meaningful art experiences to communities that traditionally have limited access, particularly rural or underserved populations. The grants support a wide range of programming, from visual art exhibitions and performing arts events to multi-disciplinary arts activities that engage both artists and audiences alike.

At Birch Tree Communities, we believe in the power of the arts to foster healing, connection, and self-expression. The continued support from the Arkansas Arts Council affirms the value of our work and helps ensure that our members have access to enriching creative opportunities year after year.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Arkansas Arts Council for their ongoing partnership and commitment to making the arts accessible to all.

Stay tuned for more updates on the 20th Annual Expressions Art Show and other upcoming events!
