The arts directly impact local culture and economy by educating children, attracting tourists, stimulating business and generating local and regional partnerships—all of which benefit the entire community.
And the arts provide a high rate of return; each dollar spent on the arts generates an additional $13 of economic impact.
Membership enriches DeSoto County by providing opportunities for everyone to participate in the arts and making many wonderful projects possible.
Financial support for the DeSoto Arts Council comes from county, municipal, corporate, and private contributions, membership dues, community fundraising, and in-kind donations.
