Freehold Borough Arts Council
The Freehold Borough Arts Council is an open commonwealth of artists, designers, performers, writers, musicians and other creative innovators of all ages and skill levels. Our strength and diversity grows and evolves with each new member. All are welcome.
The mission of the FBAC is to INSPIRE, PROVIDE, and CHAMPION the arts to build a greater cultural community. We are driven by our belief in the value of the arts and its ability to bridge cultures, and inspire positive transformation, both in individual lives and entire communities.
Our focus is to initiate a public interest in the arts, enhance cultural awareness, and provide assistance and services to arts organizations, institutions and individuals through educational outreach efforts and charitable campaigns.
