Estes Park does not have a Department of Cultural or Art Affairs, therefore we have taken the responsibility as a private non-profit to ensure that our community continues to have access to diverse arts programming and education, and that Estes Park arts organizations have a mechanism that promotes and supports their individual missions.
Your membership at any level supports the mission and goals of the Cultural Arts Council of Estes Park, and helps us accomplish the above. Memberships are a vital part of our annual budget. Membership at any level also provides you with updated information, invitations to events and pre-event opportunities to purchase tickets in advance to the general public.
2010 marks the 20th anniversary of the CAC, please download a Membership Form and join us now!
Membership Levels:
There are four basic levels of membership in the Arts Council:
- Level One (Friend, $30)
- Level Two (Family, $50)
- Level Three (Sponsor, $100)
- Level Four (Supporter, $250 and up)
Remember, your membership at any level provides ongoing support for the arts in the greater Estes Valley. In addition, your membership is tax-deductible to the extent of the law, less goods or considerations received.
