Overview

Mission

Miami Arts Commission is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit with the mission to revitalize the Miami, Arizona area through the arts and arts-based creative programming. Our mission is also to unite the artists of the Miami area, to improve Miami's appeal as a cultural destination, and to stimulate economic growth. We have programs that center the arts as a contributing part of the town's identity and growth. Through these programs we'll raise arts awareness, support and participation in Miami AZ.

What it reported doing in 2025

Miami Arts Commission produced our 13th Miami Loco Arts Festiva! We were awarded a 7250 grant from United Fund. We spent 6000 on the artists, and the rest on advertising, banners, t-shirts, miscellaneous supplies, and water. We also started activating Syke's alley as a public art project. We held several mixers and started a community garden. Another accomplishment was putting together several group Art shows and holding receptions for them.
