Help Art Thrive in Your Community!
Investing in local arts pays dividends for Westerville—studies show arts-rich communities foster stronger social bonds, bolster mental well-being, and spur economic growth by drawing residents, businesses, and tourists. Every performance, mural, or educational art grant generates ripple effects—from enhancing student learning and cross-generational unity to increasing foot traffic and revenue for local shops and restaurants. By supporting the Arts Council, you’re not just backing creativity—you’re actively shaping a more connected, prosperous, and culturally rich Westerville.
Current Volunteer Opportunities
Westerville Music and Arts Festival 2025
Each year at the Westerville Music & Arts Festival, the Arts Council welcomes visitors under our big tent for hands-on art activities for all ages. We share information about local arts opportunities and invite everyone to connect with our creative community and be part of our mission to support the arts in Westerville.
We rely on dedicated volunteers to help bring our activities to life —supporting everything from hands-on youth art activities, adult mini art workshops, and community engagement.
