The Ozark Arts Council is a cultural treasure created with money, labor, materials, and support from the entire community and is dedicated to enriching lives by promoting the arts in Harrison and North Arkansas. Since its founding in 1996, the non-profit 501(c)(3) organization has touched the lives of many through exhibitions, performances, and education. The OAC is the proud owner and operator of the historic 1929 Lyric Theater and supports six member organizations: The Twentieth Century Club, Buffalo River Concert Association, Harrison Art League, Northark Drama, The Theatre Company, and Woman's Book Club. Support for the Ozark Arts Council is provided, in part, by the Arkansas Arts Council, an agency of the Department of Arkansas Heritage, and the National Endowment for the Arts; additional support is provided by foundations, local businesses, and individuals. The OAC is a member of the Arkansas Coalition for Excellence and Arkansas Museums Association; and a graduate of the 2008-2009 class of Hands-On Experiential Learning Project (HELP), a professional development program of Mid-America Arts Alliance.
