​Our mission is to promote, initiate and support projects ​and activities that stimulate and strengthen the​ artistic and cultural life of our communities.

Arts Council Nelson (ACN) is involved in many community events and provides a variety of services through the Nelson and Tasman regions.

As well as assisting the funding of community arts projects, it also presents a variety of events and initiatives both independently and in partnership with other local groups, businesses and organisations.

ACN welcomes feedback and suggestions from the community regarding new potential initiatives and project ideas
