Review for St. Lawrence County Arts Council, Potsdam, NY, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

I enjoy participating in the classes at the Council and also enjoy special gallery showings. The service the council provides to the North Country is invaluable since it encourages local artists to create and the community to get involved and appreciate the efforts. The Council provides a ray of sunshine for the people who continue to struggle with our ongoing depressed economic situation. Greater funding could supply needed studio and performing space for local artists and provide a greater variety of art for local and regional patrons. I also hope class options for adults can be expanded. They provide a wonderful opportunity for people to share space, time and ideas while learning new skills.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

shows and classes attended, wonderful gifts for special occasions and people and good conversation.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

The artists and art community that it supports.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

very helpful, friendly, and encouraging.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

create community studio space, enlarge the gallery, expand the number of classes offered to adults and sponsor more community art activities.
